The two images:
- etoys
- etoys-dev
would fit to the Lex's scheme
http://ftp.squeak.org/debian/squeak-on-debian.pdf
I think, that whatever Jose wanted to achieve with his separate
squeak-vm package can be achieved also with our squeak-vm package (now
they are different).
What would be the advantage?
- We could keep our rich repository:
http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/3616
That contains also "licence unclean" packages.
- Some of those packages could be posted to Debian
- etoys
- etoys-dev
Really, people could then:
apt-get install etoys
and run it as:
etoys
- We would not have to maintain two (three, four, ...)
separate squeak-vm package versions.
How does this sound to Lex and especially to Jose?
