Re: Bug#667589: Do we build metapackages for wheezy?



Hi,

I just uploaded Debian Med and Debian Science packages since octave
progressed to testing.  I *could* upload Debian Edu packages as well and
as I told you a lot of work should be done on these packages anyway.
However, as I told you in this thread, it is not really clear to me how
exactly you want to proceed.  Please clarify how this should be handled
for the different releases and let me know this plan or just find a
volunteer who is doing the needed steps in the tasks (which is basically
a "s/octave3\.2/octave/" and "make dist").

Kind regards

       Andreas.
