Hi all,

i would like to ask Mandrake to add a package to their distribution. Can
anyone tell me how to do this?

In particular I want them to add "kaptain"
(http://kaptain.sourceforge.net/) as a package. That's a programm that
provides graphical interfaces to command line programs using grammar
files. It is widley used to controll the EMBOSS (www.emboss.org)
molecular biology program suite.
The author provides a package for MDK 7.2 which doesn't work on 8.2. I
can't compile the sources either (qt problems).
SuSE has this as an rpm in their distribution (7.3 and 8.0), if I can't
get it to work on MDK I would have to install SuSE at university (which
I don't want to).

Any help would be appreciated - maybe someone could just give me a hint
on how to compile the sources.


Many thanks in advance,

Jan Lentfer
