    I have been really busy for the last 2 months since I mentioned I was a
    debian developer. Has the debian package moved forward? I am almost to a
    point I can look into it if not Smile

    it has, but there's a lot to do.

    currently, all the dependent libraries used by LiveSupport are in one
    huge package (called livesupport-libs) - but they should be split up
    into their respective packages. for a lot of these, this just means
    having fairly recent versions of libraries. for some, it means having
    packages that contain patches not yet incorporated into the respective
    libraries. for some it means creating libraries that don't yet exist
    under Debian...

    I'd really appreciate if you could give a helping hand in this...
