I'm organising a workshop on making packages for Debian at
syn2cat.
      

  
I'm waiting someone give a date: will see if it's ok for me
(wednesday 21 not possible actually)
    

2009/11/08 10:00:00 AM?

ok for me,
how much will be there ?
(I will bring some cookies ...)

I've created the wiki page
https://www.hackerspace.lu/wiki/Debian_packaging for organisation /
coordination.

  
We could work on a synthetic example, but it would be best we worked
on something that you actually want to package (and maintain?) for
Debian.
      

  
2 years ago someone wrote internally a quick hack for vlc he use
some source code find somewhere in the internet (but to old to
work), to add option for default audio output to a52 (better for a
cinema !)
    

  
I have to recompile vlc with this patch (20 source code lines)
creating a deb files was easier than trying to compile (creating my
own key)
    

I'm not sure what "key" you refer to. Anyway, for such a patch,
wouldn't it be better to get it integrated upstream?

it's just a key I create to sign deb file, not a dev key,
I don't develop myself, but interested anyway ;-)

  
Take a machine running Debian with you, (...)
      

  
is ubuntu (jaunty) ok ?
    

Yes, close enough.

I guess it will be karmic ;-)



Good day,
Laurent.
