[Debian-ezgo-packaging] Blends-commit post from fweng-guest at users.alioth.debian.org requires approval

[Franklin Weng]

Hi,


Andreas, as for the following discussion is more about debian-ezgo rather
than debian-edu, it may be suitable to post it to debian-ezgo mailing list
instead of debian-edu, though I know that there may be very few people
subscribing it.

These tasks can define what will be included into the debian ezgo system,
right?  In the files of tasks, there are a lot of Depends fields.  It means
that when I install a ezgo-task-education it will install those
dependencies packages as well.  Am I correct?

BTW, I still have very few ideas about the relationships between tasks,
debian/control, debian/rules, ... etc.

I tried make but failed.  It referenced debian/changelog and define target
as oneiric, while I'm trying it on wheezy.


For now, I just want to build:
ezgo-artwork
ezgo-menu
ezgo-phet  (may be renamed to ezgo-prtutorial which means public resource
tutorials, including PhET, Animation simulations for physics, ... and so
on.)

So I'll try packaging on my own workaround repository for now.  However at
the mean time, I would still be very appreciated to get your help to
understand how blends work.


Thanks,
Franklin
