[Pkg-octave-devel] octave-stk ?

[Rafael Laboissiere]

Hi Julien,

Thanks for your offer to package octave-stk for Debian.

A good starting point to learn about the DOG is the DOG web page itself:

https://wiki.debian.org/Teams/DebianOctaveGroup

but I guess you have already seen it.  We use git and git-buildpackage 
for package maintainance.  All repositories and mailing lists are 
managed inside the Alioth project pkg-octave:

https://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-octave/

We might want to become a member of this project.

As regards packaging octave-stk, you could look at how the other 
packages are done.  Essentially, they use the infrastructure provided by 
the octave-pkg-dev package.  In this package, there is a command called 
make-octave-forge-debpkg that creates a Debian package from scratch.

Best,

Rafael
