Do you mean just a packaged deb or you mean actually in the
repositories?

Getting the deb should be relativity easy using the source package and
the apt-get source. Upload it to your PPA and share.

Yes, I'm running it (from cvs) on 8.10 Kubuntu.

I just installed the 8.04 packages from Sourceforge on my Intrepid build 
and they seem to work fine for backup, charging and tethering.

Hi,

I don't yet have a build system setup for it, and it is not yet supported
by the OpenSUSE Build Service.  That said, I do plan to build debs for
Ubuntu 8.10, just in the normal course of debugging and testing on various
systems, but it will likely be for version 0.15.

If anyone is using the 8.04 debs on 8.10 and run into any problems, please
let me know.  In the meantime, 8.04 debs should work, as reported by
Shannon McMackin.

Thanks,
- Chris

Let me know if you want debs, I can add them to my PPA and keep them up
to date.

Yes, please do.

I'm hoping that Barry will make it into Ubuntu proper (as well as the other
distros), but until that day, I'm thinking I should add a list of all such
PPA URLs to the main Barry site.  So let me know the URL.

I'm not familiar with the Ubuntu packaging process.  If you start a PPA,
does that lead to you being the official Barry maintainer for Ubuntu?
That would be great. :-)

Anyone can have a PPA, to get the package into Ubuntu proper you have to
become MOTU (Master of the Universe) and before that you have to be an
Ubuntu Member. You get it for serving the community, but you have to
apply. I can't be bothered proving myself like that just yet.

My PPA: http://launchpad.net/~doctormo/+archive

https://edge.launchpad.net/~nafallo/+archive This guy has 0.14 in his
repo and he looks like he maintains a package already.

https://edge.launchpad.net/~mernisse/+archive Has an older version
available in his.

That's understandable.

Well, you've already proved yourself in the Barry community, so I'd much
rather add your URL.  :-)  I'll keep an eye out for packages... no rush.

Thanks!

Not really - we don't have a system like that.

Ok, this is done.  I've added a list of links to the known repos that
have made themselves known on this list.

The list is: Debian, Fedora, Mandriva, and Ubuntu.

The list is in the Status section at:
	http://www.netdirect.ca/software/packages/barry/

Great, I've added the git version for today and I should have an easy
enough time keeping it up to date so long as no problems crop up.

Keep me informed if there are ubuntu users having problems.

Regards, Martin

Technically, there appears to be a barry-util package (and a few
others to go with it) in Debian Sid
(http://packages.debian.org/sid/barry-util). Since packages in Debian
get imported into Ubuntu at the start of a release cycle, I'm curious
to see if it's not already in Ubuntu Jaunty Jackalope.

It seems to have been uploaded by Jose Carlos Garcia Sogo on September
21, 2008, so that should also explain why it isn't currently in Ubuntu
8.10.

I had taken some steps to include barry in Ubuntu some time ago, but I
had run into some issues, along with the fact that I had been dealing
a little bit with Felipe Lerena who had some interest in packaging
barry for Debian/Ubuntu at that point too. Anyway, the point is that
the current development version already contains at least some of the
barry packages, so if you want to include new versions, it is easy
enough to propose them through Launchpad as a bug, or fix bugs to the
current packages, or publish your updated packages to REVU for them to
be included in universe..

My mistake, I meant to say uploaded around October 21, not
September... It would have been hard to upload it to debian before the
actual release ;)

Hi Mathieu, glad to hear from you again

This is true.  Jose has been working with me, on and off the list, to help
smooth out the process of working with upstream/downstream as much as
possible.

As I recall, the issue you reported in 2007 (namely, the packaging being
split, so debian/ is not included in some tarballs) has been addressed.
The tar.bz2 that I release on Sourceforge contains the debian/ directory,
but the tar.gz does not, and there is a related diff.gz available as well,
for those that want to build using the Debian tools.

I'd be happy to help get Barry into Ubuntu... please keep reporting any
stumbling blocks to the list, so we can work on them together.

Jose's packaging work is available in a git repository as well:
	git://git.debian.org/git/users/jsogo/barry.git

I periodically pull from there, and cherry-pick changes that are useful
upstream.

Thanks,
- Chris

Well, first version was uploaded some time before that, but it was not
accepted into debian till October. Thus it won't make into Lenny. I am
not sure about how new packages are got in Ubuntu.

I think that if you want to package them for Ubuntu or if those
packages needs some change, you should use my Git repo as a base, as
you will get every change from there easily. Also that will imply that
you can send me back patches or branches from I can pick patches quite
easy. The git repo is at:
git://git.debian.org/git/users/jsogo/barry.git
