Bug#799535: ITP: bauble-installer -- bauble is a botanic collection manager



Package: wnpp
Severity: whishlist

From the homepage (http://bauble.readthedocs.org):

  Bauble is an application for managing botanical specimen collections.
  With it you can create a searchable database of plant records.

  It is open and free and is released under the GNU Public License 2+.

From the README.md (http://github.com/Bauble/bauble.classic):

At its heart Bauble is a framework for creating database applications.
In its distributed form Bauble is an application to manage plant
records and specifically living collections. It is used among others
by the Quito Botanical Garden to manage their live collections.
Included by default is RBG Kew's Family and Genera list from Vascular
Plant Families and Genera compiled by R. K. Brummitt and published by
the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew in 1992 used by permission from RBG Kew.

-------------------------------

I am the current developer for Bauble and I have decided to distribute
Bauble connecting the installation with a branch on github.

I need to make the initial installation easier to less technical
people. to this end, I intend to package only the installation script,
not the whole program. this is because I have limited time and do not
trust myself for the extra work needed for packaging the program every
time I release a new patch, which is rather often (40 times in the
last 5 months).

I have written a very minimal and possibly working (only tested on
ubuntu 14.04) package for the installation script.
