Hi Alex, Thanks for the offer, your help is very much welcome! :) The current state is tracked at http://bugs.debian.org/492696 (cc-ed) Basically, there is a heap of dependencies that aren't packaged yet. Adding perl modules to Debian is best done via the Debian Perl Group, so you have come to the right place :) Please tell me your username on alioth.debian.org so I can add you to the pkg-perl project. Mandatory reading includes policy.html and subversion.html on http://pkg-perl.alioth.debian.org/ . Yes, module packages are maintained in a huge subversion repository. There are other useful documents on that site too, feel free to browse them. For added confusion, Padre packaging is maintained using Git at http://git.debian.org/?p=pkg-perl/apps/padre.git;a=summary (git-clone ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-perl/apps/padre.git after you have been added too the project) I am sure you will have questions. Please ask on this list or on #debian-perl channel on irc.debian.org (OFTC). -- dam JabberID: dam@jabber.minus273.org
