[sldev] [VWR] Debian progress

[Robin Cornelius]

For anyone thats interested

As part of the effort to get the viewer into Debian, have now set up a
svn server for packaging the Debian packages of the viewer. This can
be found at svn://slupdate.byteme.org.uk/. Its probably quite useless
to you if you don't run Debian or don't plan to build Debian packages.
Openjpeg, xmlrpc-epi and my mash of llmozlib are also in the
repository as Debian sources.

The source in the svn tree are essentially unmodified, all work occurs
in the /debian sub directory with the real interest being in the
/debian/patches folder which contains all patches that will be applied
when building the source. This helps merging upstream versions by
keeping the patches separate and clean.

There is also 2 mailman lists at
http://slupdate.byteme.org.uk/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo 1 a general
list so people can complain at me and other debian developers why the
debs ate there dog, the other is a standard svn commits tracker.

Regards

Robin
