First of all, thank you to everyone for all your comments and interest! <br><br>------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>&gt;Samuel Verschelde:<br><br>&gt;Great, I really like it when user communities get involved directly in the<br>
&gt;project rather than doing everything outside ! :)<br><br>We are very glad in blogdrake to help a distribution with such good<br>intentions as Mageia, so we wish all its success. <br><br>----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
&gt;José Jorge:<br><br>&gt;Good. And at first, I suggest you remove everything that is already in Mageia<br>&gt;repos as updates : smc, cegui, etc.<br>&gt;Keeping them will just add mess.<br><br>All the programmes of my repository has been checked:<br>
- The packages are not in Cauldron.<br>- They are updated to the latest version.<br>- They have been checked the licences and written in file spec.<br>- Installed and run (in Mageia 1).<br>- Checked with rpmlint and cleaned file specs to verify the conditions of rpmlint.<br>
(Everything in Mageia 1, not in Cauldron yet)<br><br>The result of this work is the following list:<br><a href="http://ftp.blogdrake.net/incoming/MGA/joaquin/mageia.txt">http://ftp.blogdrake.net/incoming/MGA/joaquin/mageia.txt</a><br>
<br>Also with the directory of srpms:<br><a href="http://ftp.blogdrake.net/incoming/MGA/joaquin">http://ftp.blogdrake.net/incoming/MGA/joaquin</a><br><br>I&#39;ve uploaded to BS already the first 2 programmes (flaw y fimount) with the help of<br>
my mentor Juan Luis Baptiste (aka Juancho) and we want to continue with this work.<br><br>All your collaboration to get the final step, would be Welcome:<br>- Try to pack all these packages in Cauldron <br>- Upload to BS <br>
There are many packages and it is too much work for one person.<br><br>-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br><br>&gt;Philipe Didier<br><br>&gt;Just one thing to correct : your repos addresses are :<br>
&gt;<a href="ftp://ftp.blogdrake.net/mageia/mageia1/free/i586/">ftp://ftp.blogdrake.net/mageia/mageia1/free/i586/</a><br>&gt;<a href="ftp://ftp.blogdrake.net/mageia/mageia1/free/x86_64/">ftp://ftp.blogdrake.net/mageia/mageia1/free/x86_64/</a><br>
<br>Thanks! The right URL is the one you show.<br><br>&gt;First thing I must say : it&#39;s a very good idea to upload these packages<br>&gt;to the BS and join the packagers team instead of providing third party<br>&gt;repos that will soon create compatibility problems (as in the past for<br>
&gt;Mandrake and Mandriva with Thac&#39;s or MIB or others)<br><br>The main target of this repository is to have the major quantity of these Programmes in Mageia 2 and, in the meanwhile, to have a repository in which the users of Mageia can enjoy of a lot of programmes, wanting to use the distribution more and more.<br>
<br>Frankly, I don&#39;t agree the policy of MIB. Even, MIB declared openly that it doesn&#39;t like Mageia (see the official website)<br><br>I tried to avoid packing libraries (compatiblity problems), so I have just packed only the neccesary libraries  to do some programmes work <br>
<br>&gt;The second thing is : before uploading them you will have to be careful<br>&gt;with the repos policy (core tainted non-free)<br>&gt;In your own repo, there is a problematic package : faac (and libfaac0<br>&gt;libfaac-devel) which is both non-free and tainted ...<br>
&gt;After long dicussions on the mailing list a meeting decision was not to<br>&gt;provide it at the moment (nor the packages built with it...)<br>&gt;If a non-free-&amp;-tainted repo is created for Mageia2, in the future, it<br>
&gt;will be then allowed ... wait and see !<br><br>Then I&#39;m not going to upload any programme which use faac to BS, until a non-free-&amp;-tainted repo is created for Mageia2 (audiokonverter y cinelerra will wait) ;-)<br>
<br>I have a list of all the packages in which I show the license of each packages to avoid making mistakes with licenses:<br><a href="http://ftp.blogdrake.net/incoming/MGA/joaquin/mageia.txt">http://ftp.blogdrake.net/incoming/MGA/joaquin/mageia.txt</a><br>
<br>Also with the directory of srpms:<br><a href="http://ftp.blogdrake.net/incoming/MGA/joaquin">http://ftp.blogdrake.net/incoming/MGA/joaquin</a><br><br>------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br>
<br>&gt;José Jorge:<br><br>&gt;hi, I am packaging games in mageia, so maybe I can help bring faster blogdrake<br>&gt;repos. Is there a way to say which packages I start working on?<br><br>My friend GregoryBravas (admin from <a href="http://blogdrake.net">http://blogdrake.net</a>) created a post with all <br>
the games in blogdrake repository. I think you should visit it before packing yourself, <br>to avoid any extra-work! <br><a href="http://blogdrake.net/blog/bravas/juegos-para-mageia1-en-el-repositorio-de-blogdrake">http://blogdrake.net/blog/bravas/juegos-para-mageia1-en-el-repositorio-de-blogdrake</a><br>
<br>Also see the previous list:<br><a href="http://ftp.blogdrake.net/incoming/MGA/joaquin/mageia.txt">http://ftp.blogdrake.net/incoming/MGA/joaquin/mageia.txt</a><br><br>In my blog you also can see the emulators (games) packed for Mageia:<br>
<a href="http://blogmageia.wordpress.com/">http://blogmageia.wordpress.com/</a><br>(The blue list on the right at the end)<br><br>I take the advantage to thank Bravas for all his help packing all these games<br>and much more programmes!! ;-)<br>
<br>Best Regards,<br>Joaquin<br><br>
