actually, i am doing 3 already, at least for i386 since hardy. maybe my long list was not readable enough, so i'll try a table this time: R version || UR (<R) | cran (+R) KDE 3/4 || +rkw3 | +rkw | +rkw3 | +rkw ------------------------------------------------------------------- hardy || rkward-kde3 | rkward | rkward-kde3-cran | rkward-cran intrepid || -- | rkward | -- | rkward-cran jaunty || -- | rkward | -- | rkward-cran so there's eight different binaries in my repository. this table can be decoded to find the repository needed: deb http://reaktanz.de/deb/<repo_name> <ubuntu_version> main with <ubuntu_version> coming from the first column, and <repo_name> being the value of a specific cell. > Pushing this to cran packagers will again, bring in a _waiting > queue_... this might be true. and i don't think they're interested in packages that we are still testing ourselves. provinding them with a working diff for the latest official/stable release might help them, but not all the testing stages before. do you agree? > Me and Meik can split between 2 and 3. We can use the same > scripts just different virtual machines! i'm using six vms at the moment -- hardy, intrepid and jaunty, each in two flavours (with/without cran R). i don't think we need to support versions before hardy, do you? but 64bit versions would be useful, and probably packages for the forthcoming 9.10 in some months. > 3. hardy: +rkw3 & +rkw -- cran provides 0.5.0b-2 > 4. intrepid: +rkw3 & +rkw -- cran NONE > 5. jaunty: +rkw -- cran NONE > Which of these do we really want to provide? 4. and 5 - should. i'd count in 3. as well, because it is the latest "long term support" release. and do we really still need kde3 in intrepid? > Another issue: Will rkward compiled against KDE 4.2.x work on KDE > 4.1.x? Probably not! no, probably not -- why do you ask? do you want to support third party kde repositorys as well? viele grüße :: m.eik -- dipl. psych. meik michalke abt. f"ur diagnostik und differentielle psychologie institut f"ur experimentelle psychologie heinrich-heine-universit"at d"usseldorf
