Dear Yaroslav,

I tried to package Expyriment. You can retrieve the source package for 
here: 
http://code.google.com/p/expyriment/downloads/list?can=2&q=OpSys%3DLinux 
<http://code.google.com/p/expyriment/downloads/list?can=2&q=OpSys%3DLinux&colspec=Filename+Summary+Uploaded+ReleaseDate+Size+DownloadCount> 
I an not sure whether everything is correct. Please let me know, if 
something is missing.
