Hey Joe, Debian packages would be good. You can definitely help with this. If you get the package built, send it to me, and we'll stick it on scipy.org. Also, can you supply a short description of you to install the package on Debian? Or, another option is for you to put it on your scipy.org member page. This would make it easier for you to maintain until it becomes a part of an automated build process. We can put a link from the download page to your member page. Also, I haven't used Debian and so am not familiar with its packaging (other than everyone acknowledges that its very slick). Can the dpkg-buildpackage stuff be installed and run a on a RH box, or does it require a Debain machine? If it can be done on a RH box and you can provide the scripts to produce the packages, we'll try and set it up so that it is built automatically on our system for the next release. thanks, eric ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joe Reinhardt" <jmr@engineering.uiowa.edu> To: <scipy-dev@scipy.net>; "A.J.

Did this debian package ever materialize?
As far as I know, there is no bdist_deb, but I have packaged other python packages using "python setup.py build" and dpkg-buildpackage with no trouble.
I would be interested in working to get this packaged. Let me know if I can help.

So distutils stuff works?
And are there any plans for a debian package (more "if not, I'll work at it", than an honest request).
