I will play with it in some weeks and probably join the team (i.e. you actually) on Alioth. ;) I also will begin testing apt-build over the next few weeks and desire to join the team. I admit I am a fairly new programmer, but I think apt-build is a wonderful idea and would enjoy collaborating with everyone to help with this package. Feel free to email me with any ideas I could help with, even documentation. Thanks.

Bug#365427: RFH: apt-build -- Need new developer(s)
On Sunday 30 April 2006 01:42, Julien Danjou wrote: Package: wnpp Severity: normal Hi, Hello, apt-build really lacks of support right now. It works pretty well, but currently it is not capable to deal with every particular case that it might encounter. Many improvements could be done, mainly by using libapt-pkg-perl and enhancing it (like adding new bindings), instead of using external programs such as apt-get or apt-cache. Perhaps some bits from apt-build can e merged to sibling projects like apt-src, sbuild or similar. I have no time and no interest in working on apt-build, since I never used it. I only wrote it as a proof of concept that Debian could work the way Gentoo did. I'm not sure what you mean here, but Debian already has several tools to build, test and improve debian source packages. Just to name a few ... starting from [ the bare apt-get build-dep --build, several SCM-buildpackage, debuild, pbuilder, apt-src, sbuild and probably several unofficials like apt-fu ... and ending with the famous wanna-build/buildd/sbuild infrastructure along with dak ] If you want to kick out Gentoo and source based distro, please consider helping apt-build. These are really no good reasons and probably a loose bait, I doubt there is something or someone to kick out ;-) Again I'm not sure what the definition of source based distro is and what is Debian lacking exactly ;-) IMHO having tools to build the distro source packages implies being a source based distro, but Debian has always has such tools and infrastructures. I really can't think of other distribution on the Earth with so many build tools. A project is already set up on Alioth. Good. No offence plase, but I realy do not see the point of having so many build wizards ;-) Consolidate please ;-) -- pub 4096R/0E4BD0AB 2003-03-18 people.fccf.net/danchev/key pgp.mit.edu fingerprint 1AE7 7C66 0A26 5BFF DF22 5D55 1C57 0C89 0E4B D0AB -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

However, it is designed to be an apt-get like tool. None of the software you quoted can pretend to be as simple as apt-get (maybe apt-src). apt-build tries to. These are really no good reasons and probably a loose bait, I doubt there is something or someone to kick out ;-) Hey, just kidding. :-) Again I'm not sure what the definition of source based distro is and what is Debian lacking exactly ;-) IMHO having tools to build the distro source packages implies being a source based distro, but Debian has always has such tools and infrastructures. I really can't think of other distribution on the Earth with so many build tools. I cleary agree. But today, we have a simple tool called apt-get to install a binary package but none to build install a source package, furthermore, with optimized compilation flags. This is what apt-build is about: compiling and installing Debian sources on the fly, as simply as apt-get do it for binary packages, or emerge for Gentoo. Cheers, -- Julien Danjou .''`.
