I have set up a few rbuilders for the security team, which involves wanna-build and sbuild. I think that packaging them is definitely possible, though it will be a PITA. A lot of the configurable stuff really doesn't have safe defaults. The postinst would probably end up being very interactive. When I set the software up, I based my work on the .debs generated by the rules script in the CVS tree, so that directory certainly isn't *completely* broken. Since I have several rbuilders left to set up ASAP, I would certainly be willing to help with the effort to create decent packages for it. noah -- _______________________________________________________ | Web: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/ | PGP Public Key: http://web.morgul.net/~frodo/mail.html
