Bug#717532: (no subject)
Hi,
I am the developer of ODB. Today I announced the availability
of ODB packages for RHEL 5 and 6, as well as Fedora 19-21.
While this is great news, what saddens me somewhat, as a Debian
user myself, is that there are no such packages for Debian yet.
At the same time I believe it should now be very straightforward
to package ODB for Debian. The system was designed from the grounds
up to be packager-friendly (that’s why it is split into multiple
packages instead of being a one monolithic block). Also, the packaging
efforts first for Gentoo and then for EL/Fedora ironed out a lot of
kinks. So if anyone is interested in packaging ODB for Debian, let
us know (post to the odb-users mailing list). I will personally
assist you in any way I can, as I did in the past for the Gentoo
and EL/Fedora packaging efforts.
Boris
