Re: Starting packaging VistA (Re: LSM in Geneva)
Hi again,
I tried to consolidate the vista entry in the tasks file[1] and your
packaging files. The first thing I noticed that we have two ITPs: One
for Vista[2] and one for World-Vista[3]. Could you clarify the difference?
The next thing is that the Homepage in the ITP for Vista[2] from Bhaskar
is [4] clearly contains the string "VistA". However the homepage you
injected into the control file[5] is totally different[6] is mentioning
OSEHRA but the terms VistA, Mumps, FIS or something like this are not on
this page. I'd call this confusing. Any reason not to use [4] as
homepage?
The description in the tasks file[1] speaks about flavours of VistA - if
OSEHRA is such a thing this information would definitely belong to the
description and also a reason why this flavour was choosen for
packaging. I admit that some slight hints could be read out of your
copyright file.
Finally your last paragraph in the long description is:
VistA is implemented in M/MUMPS, and on Linux depends on the GT.M
compiler and database being available.
That's rather metainformation which belongs into the Depends relations
(were it just is) and not into the long description.
Kind regards
Andreas.
