Bug#389561: Quasar Request to package.



I would like to second the request.

The current version works with PostgreSQL - there is talk about adding mysql

There are also already packages for Fedora, Mandrake, Redhat, Slackware, and SuSE

ftp://ftp.linuxcanada.com/pub/Quasar/1.4.7/source/quasar-1.4.7_GPL.tgz

Most of the work was already finished - but the links have disappeared -

From http://lists.clug.org.za/pipermail/clug-tech/2005-July/024985.html

The sources.list entries are:

deb http://bofs.co.za/~iburger/quasar/sarge-i386 /
deb http://bofs.co.za/~iburger/quasar/hoary-amd64 /

You can also compile it from source.  Download the .tar.gz file, and
apply the .diff.gz file (where applicable).  You can get that here:

http://bofs.co.za/~iburger/quasar/source

Then change into the directory and run:

   dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -rfakeroot

You will of course be told if there are missing build dependencies.

Also note that the icu-3.2 packages is not in debian and is required
to run quasar.
