Packages debian needs
1) Oracle installer
This could be created from the suse or redhat oracle
installer.
2) BackupPC
Currently the best why to backup M$ PCs, IMHO
At least until someone builds a proper backupfs. If
you are interest in building a proper backupfs, let me
know. I would start from reiserfs4. Anyway that is an
other discussion.
3) Debian packages from peer to peer networks.
It is quite simple actually. The package get tool
retrieves a list of the current debian package files
using the current methods. Then the package get tool
retrieves the package files from the peer to peer
network. The debian machine will also install peer to
peer software and offer to share peer to peer files
from /var/cache/apt. This will greatly speed up
subsequent local fetches from other machines in the
same or near networks.
As an advantage gives the peer to peer network lots of
legit traffic and speeds up debian downloads.
Please add, If there is enough interest in the first
two and you can tell me who the maintainer is for this
stuff. I will glady help with these first two.
