Matteo,

Just looked at the dsc on mentors.debian.

Due to the plugin environment, I wondered if a slightly more distributed
packaging was appropriate. My experimenting, a couple of months back,
produced a ppa for ubuntu maverick ->

http://ppa.launchpad.net/phantomjinx/gtkpod-2.0.1-beta/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gtkpod/

This is on similar lines to how I have done it for rpms on Fedora.

What do you think?

Cheers

PGR
