Please reply all when responding to messages on this list.
As far as the PPAs, we are pretty much covered between Israel's PPA and the
KXStudio PPA but these steps, including packaging for DEB, packaging for
PPA, file association, etc... I don't think are well defined on any of our
wikis.
What we could really benefit from is some step-by-step instructions for DEB
packaging so that a community member such as myself could script it onto
our release steps. It is quite unfortunate that our Linux a community
often has to wait longer than users of the proprietary varieties. Building
from source is a splendid option, but it is quite lengthy. I would like to
see a method which flows better into our release cycle, and a DEB download
may do that.
If you have the skills necessary to script some of the file association
stuff, perhaps we can add it to the `make install` script for Debian
flavors? Or find a way to bundle it properly into the deb.
I know many have done this before including our own developers, but some
simple instructions published to our wiki could help make it part of our
permanent build script/ release cycle / or wherever it fits.
