We are aware of the official Debian Alioth project and mailing lists and later we can move things to Alioth if we decide to do so. But the google groups interface is nice and also the "debian-sage" project is not official in Debian (yet), but we already need to coordinate efforts.

Debian SAGE Packaging Team (DSPT)

Task description

Currently [http://sagemath.org/ SAGE] is not in Debian yet. This team wants to make this happen.

We are aware of the official Debian Alioth project and mailing lists and later we can move things to Alioth if we decide to do so. But the google groups interface is nice and also the "debian-sage" project is not official in Debian (yet), but we already need to coordinate efforts.

Plan

The following items should be done in parallel:

  • wait a year or so, until SAGE settles some more
  • fix patches in spkg, so that it works both for SAGE and outside of SAGE; get those patches to Debian
  • package those packages that will not work outside SAGE in /usr/share/SAGE, or something.
  • try to package the packages in Debian independently so that we have a good knowledge of any policy issue with files shipped in the packages
    • that are non-free but not used in SAGE
    • that are automatically generated but which cannot be built easily

See the team mailinglist for uptodate information on what is happening.
