Ok, I found this: http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2011/10/msg00195.html Which points to : http://mentors.debian.net/package/flex-sdk-4.5 However this leads to an error. Digging further I found: http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2011/10/msg00421.html Which leads to: http://alioth.debian.org/scm/?group_id=100677 I cannot retrieve from git it fails with: $ git clone git+ssh://ma...@git.debian.org/git/pkg-flex-sdk/pkg-flex-sdk.git Cloning into 'pkg-flex-sdk'... fatal: '/git/pkg-flex-sdk/pkg-flex-sdk.git' does not appear to be a git repository fatal: The remote end hung up unexpectedly Looking at: http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/ I do not see any 'pkg-flex-sdk'.
