This is my first Fink package and I've built a .info and a .patch

quickly because it's so small).

Thanks a lot for this package.


I'm attaching the two files here for review.

May I ask you to add your .info and .patch files to the package submission tracker? That will make it easier for fink developers to look at it. And we can keep track of the changes. The tracker can be found at:


<http://sourceforge.net/tracker/?atid=414256&group_id=17203>

which is linked from the fink homepage.

Do you know that there is also a request open for jove?
<http://sourceforge.net/tracker/ ?group_id=17203&atid=371315&func=detail&aid=546636>
This can be closed once you added your package to the tracker.


Do I need to add a dependency for fileutils since I'm using
/sw/bin/install to install the files, or should I use /usr/bin/install.

I always use /usr/bin since then you can be sure that it exists. I recommend that for your package too.


Is it possible to get commit access to the tree to submit these?

Normally packagers put their new package into the package submission tracker. There they get reviewed and added by one of the developers. It's the best way to start packaging since you get feedback.


After this, I'll try working on getting Amanda into Fink.  Amanda
is at http://www.amanda.org/ and is a network backup utility for
Unix systems.

Sounds great!


Cheers, Chris.

PS: Please note the the fink developers are quite busy updating fink for 10.3. That's why you might need to wait some time before you package gets reviewed.
