| Summary | 0002852: Provide Ubuntu binary packages | ||||
| Description | Since end-users are best served by a simple, uniform software installation method and Ubuntu / Linux Mint is the most popular, binary-based Linux distribution, packaging Gnunet builds for the common architectures will greatly enhance the benefit of the Gnunet project.

Björn sent a (related) message using the contact form at https://gnunet.org/contact: Compiling and installing GNUnet is still a 'pain in the a..'. Some distributions offer binaries, but they are either outdated or important parts are missing. How about using the 'openSUSE Build Servive' for building 'official' binaries? OBS offers building packages from same source for SUSE, openSUSE, Arch, Debian, RedHat, Fedora, Cent OS, Mandriva and Ubuntu (Kubuntu, Xubuntu, etc.): http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Build_Service_supported_build_targets Advantage: Easier installation for the average user and the possibility for the developers to test GNUnet on a larger scale. |

I've been looking into making a package myself. I have a simple build script that builds gnunet (both SVN HEAD and 0.9.5a from scratch w/ dependencies) and would be willing to look into making a package for GNUnet. |

This is where work on the Debian package happens: http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=collab-maint/gnunet.git Clone it and send patches to Bertrand Marc. |

This is really something Ubuntu needs to do, not us. |
