not you, but Tincho - adding him to the loop But the directory was
created just fine.

btw, svn-inject can take care of creating the directory, too.


Cheers,

libmesh. The packages are here:

http://debian.certik.cz/

but they still need some work, before they could be uploaded to unstable.

Awesome.

Yeah, I know, but I just prefer to do it by hand.

Thanks for a reply,

Well, I am actually at the SAGE conference in Bristol right now. But
SAGE is really huge and I don't think the time has come to package it
in Debian yet. SAGE is packaging a lot of external packages together
with SAGE patches to make them compile and play nicely. Two days ago
we did a quick check which packages in SAGE are in Debian and which
are not:

http://wiki.sagemath.org/days6/sprint/debian

And there are 24 packages, that are not yet in Debian. And that's not
the biggest problem - the biggest problem is that SAGE needs some
packages to be patched, like Maxima. So the first step would be to get
those patches to the respective Debian packages, the maintainer of
which doesn't need to accept them etc.

So it's a very slow process and too much for 1 or two people to do.

Those messages, although indicative of an error, are harmless. Since
the commit is done anyways. I don't understand what happened, since
all the files are group-owned by python-apps and are group-writable...

About the "uninitialized value", that's because $HOME was empty, which
is strange... Any other person has seen this while committing?
