Re: [Modeling-users] debianized modeling

[Sebastien B. <sbi...@us...>]

        Hi,

  Hey! This is very interesting ; I've downloaded the files and I'll
have a look at them in the next coming days. I'll probably have a look
to the debian howtos as well, it's something I plan to do for such a
loooong time ;)

  The pb. with binaries conflicting in /usr/bin could be annoying,
  sometimes you really need different python versions installed at the
  same time, but we'll see, there must be solutions.

Would you possibly consider maintaining these files if we integrate this
in CVS and use them to distribute debian packages as well?

        Thanks a lot for sharing,

-- S=E9bastien.
