[Linuxmce-project] Plutohome for Ubuntu, I'm working alone on it at last year.

[Thiago C. <thi...@tc...>]

Hello to all,

 This is my first message to this list. My english is very bad... sorry
about that!

 At last two years I'm working with Plutohome in Brazil, since version
2.0.0.3x of
Plutohome, and one of my dreams is port Plutohome to Ubuntu!

 I have a lot of hardware here, like Haupauge PVR-250, slim devices, IP
cameras, Treo and Nokia cell phones and more.

 I don't use Debian anymore since Ubuntu Dapper Drake become more intuitive
and stable than ever.

 Well, first of all, Pluthome doesn't have a "deb-src"
repository, so I can't do an "apt-get build-dep pluto-orbiter" for example.

 My ideal is to do something like that:

1) Install Ubuntu Server/Desktop;
2) Change sources.list addind universe and multiverse to all distros (aka
feisty, feisty-updates, feisty-security...);
3) Add two extra lines to sources.list to LinuxMCE project (deb and
deb-src);
4) aptitude update;
5) aptitude install plutohome.

 That's my dream becomes reallity!

 I'm think plutohome package will be a meta-package, or a task, or maybe
like LAMP...

Best regards,
Thiago

Jason,

 Maybe this isn't a question, it's just a "Hello I'm here and I want to work
in this project".     :-D
 And put some ideas on the table...

 Well, I see in LinuxMCE install procedure I must download a package mce
-installer for Ubuntu 6.10 and follow its instructions...

 But I think is more standard add a line (for example: deb
http://www.linuxmce.com/ubuntu edgy main) to sources.list, do an "aptitude
update;aptitude install linuxmce", and this it enough to have entire
solution up and running, instead of downloading mce-installer.

 Even mce-installer can be like a build-essential meta-package. What do you
think?!

 You know what I mean?!   ( my english... uuurgh...   :-P   )

I will make the packages!
We just need a svn server to work with svn-buildpackage.

I don't have much time to dedicate on this but... I will do my best!

Regards!
