Hi Andreas,
With Alioth being back up again, I requested membership in the Debian Science
Team but am still waiting for a reply. Meanwhile, I got 'ckon' compiled on a
amd64 debian box (testing release) with Build-Depends set to libboost-all-dev
[1] and up-to-date m4 macros for autoconf [2]. Please find the newest package
release on github [3]. For i386, testing is underway on a ubuntu saucy box.
I'm very glad to hear that you'd be willing to sponsor my package. I hope I can
commit to the Debian Science Repository soon ...
Thanks much,
Patrick

@Andreas: yes, I think working on the ckon package within the Debian
Science team would make the most sense. Thank you for the
suggestion. I'm forwarding the ITP to the debian-science-maintainers
list, too.
Fine.
I've been following the debian science policy [1] to start packaging
ckon. Please find the binary packages (and the git-buildpackage
repository) on github [2]. Unfortunately, I couldn't request
membership in the Debian Science Team and create a package
repository on git.debian.org due to alioth.debian.org throwing the
error message "Alioth Could Not Connect to Database:". I tried all
day to access Alioth after creating an account but no success.
I can confirm that this problem seems to exist since about 10 hours. I
hope it will be solved quickly. Once this is done I'd offer to sponsor
your package in case nobody else might step in according to my
Sponsering of Blends effort
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianPureBlends/SoB
Also, I compiled the package on a fresh ubuntu precise32 vagrant
box. However, ckon depends on boost1.50 which is not part of the
ubuntu precise release. Hence, I used
libboost1.50-all-dev from ppa:brainpower/testing [3] and added it to
Build-Depends [4]. The name might have to be changed for an
appropriate debian release.
I think you should rather Build-Depends from libboost-all-dev which
would simplify transitions.
Thanks for your work on this package
Andreas.
