Package: debian-edu Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Dear Debian-Edu developers,
we consider several packages very important to teach software development in schools. So I would love to see a meta package education-develop that contains the package dependencies as they are defined in the attached tasks file. I did not submitted it to SVN because it might have immediate influence on the size of the distribution medium which is probably not the best idea in the current state of development, but I would be happy if this would be implemented soon. The list is based on a hint from a sidux-seminarix user/developer ? Thomas Kross <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> which he gave to a German mailing list of the Pingos project (http://www.pingos.org/). Thanks for maintaining Debian-Edu Andreas. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (501, 'testing'), (50, 'unstable'), (5, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-3-686 (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] (charmap=ISO-8859-15) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash
Task: Development Architecture: any Description: DebianEdu software development related educational applications This metapackage depends on various applications that can be used to develop applications in schools. The idea is to support integrated development environments that are easy to learn and lead to quick results for beginners. Recommends: education-menus Depends: fp-compiler, fp-ide, fp-units-base, fp-units-gfx, fp-utils, fp-units-gtk2, \ fp-docs, fpc-source, fp-units-fcl, fp-units-i386, fp-units-multimedia, \ fp-units-misc, fp-units-net, fp-units-rtl, fp-units-fv Depends: lazarus Depends: gambas2 Depends: quanta Note: this dependency is just contained in desktop-other, but it might be worth mentioning here Ignore: sun-java6-bin, sun-java6-demo, sun-java6-fonts, sun-java6-jdk, sun-java6-jre, sun-java6-plugin, sun-java6-source Note: While Java6 is in non-free it is definitely useful for software development in schools and should be on our radar in any case. Suggests: eclipse Note: Eclipse is a really powerful development environment and schould not be missing in this list, but it might be some overkill for students and thus it is only "Suggested". Depends: bwbasic Depends: kturtle Depends: kommander Suggests: tk8.5-dev, tcl8.5-dev Suggests: swi-prolog, swi-prolog-clib, swi-prolog-http, swi-prolog-semweb, \ swi-prolog-sgml, swi-prolog-table, swi-prolog-xpce, swi-prolog-doc
