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/Status ==

See the team mailinglist for uptodate information on what is happening. Join the Google group debian-sage for discussion. Packagers from other distributions and operating systems are welcome there, too.

'''The plan below is largely outdated, but remains here for historical reasons for now:'''

The following items should be done in parallel:

  * redesign spkg-install to handle distribution packages (done for Debian, patch will be in 2.10.2)
  * create Debian packages for spkgs not in Debian (nearly done, sage-*.spkg still missing)
  * use existing packages from testing and track down the debs in testing that cause doctest failures. Resolve those issues
  * Expand the building to non-testing and track down failures in existing debs. Investigate the use of backports.org for those debs		  * [[http://web.mit.edu/tabbott/www|Tim Abbott]]

Plan

1. Make a .deb that is "monolithic" and installs the complete

  • sage installation into /opt/sage (say).

2. make any changes to the Sage distribution needed to make

  • creating the deb in 1) automatic and maintainable, e.g., make a command "sage

    -deb <version>" that creates the deb and puts it in SAGE_ROOT/dist/.

3. Should I make a google-code procject for that or should I

  • put the plan to Sage's wiki page/

4. add the resulting .deb's to the sagemath.org website.
