Has a PPA system (ref: ubuntu) been considered for maemo.org? Having to shoehorn everything through the extras process is a bit too draconian for my tastes, and in general it's probably safer to add a single special-purpose repository somewhere than enable a full-blown extras-devel repository (that just might brick your phone). Example use case: I'd like to set up a repository for myself, containing various tools I like to use in my scratchbox (without having to recompile the stuff over and over again, or manually install debs). Also, users may want to follow development snapshots from one particular program, still without enabling extras-devel (or even extras-testing). Ubuntu PPA's are a perfect solution for lots of problems, and I'm wondering why we don't have this yet ;-). Is it a manpower problem? -- Ville M. Vainio http://tinyurl.com/vainio
