kdeextragear, and kdenonbeta
Hi. I know that kdeextragear* and kdenonbeta are not official KDE modules, but some applications are packaged for Debian, but some interesting others (kimdaba, amarok, ...) are not. I'm packaging konserve [*], which is in kdenonbeta, and upstream will release a new version next monday. I realized that working without a SVN/CVS repository is a bit tricky, so I considered different options: a) Use a local repository in my machine. Problem: it doesn't allows others to check my sources. b) Open an alioth project, as many others, just for konserve. Problem: I plan to package others in the future, as soon as my skills improve, and I don't want to create a project for each. c) Use KDE's CVS repository. d) Ask Qt/KDE mantainers what's their opinion. Maybe someday my package moves to an official module, and it's interesting to keep history. I don't know possible benefits or possible problems of this option, so that's the reason I'm asking to you ;-). Any suggestions? Thanks in advance. [*] It isn't in Debian yet because my sponsor is at Malaga's conference, and he has been a bit busy this days, but a lot of initial minor fixes had been done.

Well there are no official pkgs, but ;) I've announced woody/sid kimdaba KDE 3.2 pkg on the kimdaba list. And I've on my system a amorak pkg. AFAIR I've found them on the amarok home page. I hope that kalyxo.org will sometime in the future provide a pool of all those non-official kde pkgs for woody and sarge (when sarge is called stable) ;) Achim I'm packaging konserve [*], which is in kdenonbeta, and upstream will release a new version next monday.

Yes, there are amarok packages, but there aren't in debian, so I can't install them from the official debian repositories in my powerpc ;-). There aren't source packages neither, only binary. Bringing them to the official debian distribution, seems more interesting to me :-) I hope that kalyxo.org will sometime in the future provide a pool of all those non-official kde pkgs for woody and sarge (when sarge is called stable) ;) I hope too.
