Re: [Ltsp-discuss] Debian and LTSP

[Jim M. <jam@McQuil.com>]

David,

I don't think that LTSP will ever officially become a Debian package,
because of the way LTSP is built, using the LBE (LTSP Build
Environment).  It just doesn't fit into the Debian guidelines for their
packages.

Although, a few people have built .deb's from LTSP packages in the past,
and I plan to release our own "official" LTSP deb packages just as soon
as I get a chance.  In fact, I've been working closely with a debian
developer, just to make sure I get it right.
