[tahoe-dev] Getting Tahoe into Debian (was: Re: linking pycryptopp against system provided cryptopp)

[Aleksandr Milewski]

Brian's connectivity impaired and Zooko's at a conference, so I'll  
chime in here.

Brian maintains Debian packages for foolscap, and Zooko uses stdeb to  
create packages for zfec and pycryptopp.

Binary packages are available from

http://allmydata.org/debian [dist] main

where [dist] is at least etch/sid/gutsy/hardy, and possibly all the  
way pack to dapper. I'll try to round up the necessary bits of source  
and metafiles and make them available this week.

Allmydata.com production (my responsibility) is a mix of gutsy and  
hardy, and 'apt-get install allmydata-tahoe' with all dependencies  
satisfied is a requirement for deployment. :)
