[Ichthux-devel] Software to Include

[Raphaël Pinson]

Hi Don,

I have begun to create meta-packages for ichthux yesterday (see 
http://ichthiux.free.fr/wikini/wakka.php?wiki=ListOfPackages ).
Therefore I am in the process of thinking of what apps to include in ichthux 
now.

I think this must be discussed now.

So far, here are the packages I've began (to be completed) and the ones I 
think we should plan (including all the infos as it appears on 
http://ichthiux.free.fr/wikini/wakka.php?wiki=ListOfPackages ). 


 ichthux-kde 
Source: ichthux-kde
Section: kde
Priority: optional
Maintainer: Raphaël Pinson <raphink at ichthux.org>
Standards-Version: 3.6.1.1 <http://3.6.1.1>

Package: ichthux-kde
Architecture: all
Depends: kio-sword, bibletime
Description: Ichthux for KDE
This package includes a collection of programs for christians which are 
built for KDE. A KDE desktop is not required in order to run these. They are 
kept separate merely so that installing an Ichthux system won't drag in all 
kinds of KDE dependencies. As such, this package is by no means a complete 
collection of programs suitable for christians in KDE. The Ichthux project 
will be adding to this list in future releases, and likely refining the 
package into categories the way the rest of Ichthux packages are now 
organized.


 ichthux-gnome 
Source: ichthux-gnome
Section: gnome
Priority: optional
Maintainer: Raphaël Pinson <raphink at ichthux.org>
Standards-Version: 3.6.1.1 <http://3.6.1.1>

Package: ichthux-gnome
Architecture: all
Depends : gnomesword
Description : Ichthux for Gnome
This package includes a collection of programs for christians which are 
built for Gnome. A Gnome desktop is not required in order to run these. They 
are kept separate merely so that installing an Ichthux system won't drage in 
all kinds of Gnome dependencies. As such, this package is by no means a 
complete collection of programs suitable for christians in Gnome. The 
Ichthux project will be adding to this list in future releases, and likely 
refining the package into categories the way the rest of Ichthux packages 
are now organized.


 ichthux-console 
Source: ichthux-console
Section: doc
Priority: optional
Maintainer: Raphaël Pinson <raphink at ichthux.org>
Standards-Version: 3.6.1.1 <http://3.6.1.1>

Package: ichthux-console
Architecture: all
Depends : bible-kjv, bible-kjv-text, verse
Description : Ichthux console programs
This package includes a collection of programs for christians to be run in 
console. The Ichthux project will be adding to this list in future releases, 
and likely refining the package into categories the way the rest of Ichthux 
packages are now organized.



* Planned packages *

 ichthux-student 
Would contain programs for bible study : bibletime, gnomesword.
See the possibility of packaging the main sword modules so they are 
installed automatically into /usr/share/sword/ by this meta-package


 ichthux-community 
Would contain programs for churches : Lyricue (? - package fails to install 
on sid), ChurchInfo?<http://ichthiux.free.fr/wikini/wakka.php?wiki=ChurchInfo/edit>(to
be packaged) /
InfoCentral?<http://ichthiux.free.fr/wikini/wakka.php?wiki=InfoCentral/edit>, 
CHADDB (when release available).



 ichthux-doc 
Would contain a documentation about the ichthux project. Could also install 
PenguinInThePew?<http://ichthiux.free.fr/wikini/wakka.php?wiki=PenguinInThePew/edit>
.


I think the Freely project and L4C could help us a lot here, no propose new 
apps to include. It seems there will also be a great work of packaging some 
apps that are not packaged yet.


God bless

Raphaël
