Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
Hi
The Mac-On-Linux packages are formally team maintained, but actually I'm
the only active maintainer and my time is quite limited. This is why it
took quite long to prepare the long overdue update to support the latest
kernels. I would be glad to welcome some more members to the pkg-mol
team.
The packages are maintained in the alioth repository on
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-mol
Source tarballs (repackaged and original) are available from
http://pkg-mol.alioth.debian.org/
If you need help or have further questions, feel free to ask on
pkg-mol-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org.
This is a small TODO list from the top of my head:
- check configure options we could activate (especially pci-proxy
support and debugger support)
- better support for running linux inside mol (probably this is
currently broken, guest side drivers are not packaged for debian,
sources are in the old mol bk archive, snapshot at
http://pkg-mol.alioth.debian.org/bk_checkouts/bk_checkouts.tar.bz2)
- fix building mol twice in a row (double compilation support release goal!)
- check and possibly package new gui frontend (svn module mol-gui at
mac-on-linux.sf.net)
- write missing manpage for mol-img
- ...

The package description is:
.
Mac-on-Linux is a virtual machine capable of running
GNU/Linux, Mac OS and Mac OS X on most Debian/PowerPC
machines. In contrast to an emulator, Mac-on-Linux runs
natively on the processor, i.e. it is very fast.
.
This package contains the emulator itself. In order to actually use
it, you need kernel modules from an mol-modules package built against
your kernel version (if you can't find pre-packaged ones, build your
own from the mol-modules-source package). Also, you will need a
mol-drivers package that supports the operating system you wish to
run on the virtual machine. At the time of this writing, there are
driver packages for Linux, Mac OS 9 and earlier, and Mac OS X.
