Where are the French extra-packages?
Where are the French extra-packages? They need to be uploaded into
Debian very soon to make it into Debian/Etch, and should be uploaded
into the debian-edu repository as well to make sure we track their
existence and try to find room for them on the first CD.
The lack of visible progress in getting them into Debian worries me.
I believe there is a lot of hard work left to do before they will be
ready to go into Etch, and unless someone (I'm not going to work on
it) start doing the work, the packages will be missing in Debian.
There were questions about automatically building the French extra CD
on administrator.s.n. I'm all for it. I suspect the easiest approach
to make that happen is to upload the packages to the debian-edu
repository and list them as recommends and suggests in the debian-edu
tasks. This will make the packages show up on the second CD now being
built for Etch. We can then call this CD the French extra CD. :)
And if we are able to trim down the content on the first CD even
further, we will get the French packages on that CD instead. Should
we try to make a DVD as well?
French team, please focus on this. Time is short before etch freezes,
and there is a lot of hard work left to do. :)
