Starting with version 0.9, I plan on getting mosquitto packaged in the major
|
||
Linux distributions. By this I mean Debian, Fedora, openSUSE and Ubuntu. This
|
||
is my understanding of the current state of play of those distributions. Feel
|
||
free to correct me!
|
||
|
||
* Debian is currently in freeze for the Squeeze release. Mosquitto will have
|
||
to go into Squeeze+1, although it can still be uploaded to Unstable.
|
||
* Fedora 14 has just been released, Fedora 15 will have feature freeze on the
|
||
8th of February.
|
||
* openSUSE 11.4 will have feature freeze at the start of December.
|
||
* Ubuntu 11.04 has its Debian import freeze on the 30th of December and
|
||
feature freeze on 24th of February.
|
||
|
||
The plan is therefore to release 0.9 around the 14th of November and aim to be
|
||
packaged for Debian unstable before 30th of December and openSUSE before the
|
||
start of December, with packaging for Fedora 15 coming at some point later. If
|
||
packaging for Debian unstable isn't possible before the Ubuntu import freeze,
|
||
then package for Ubuntu separately.
|
||
|
||
If you can help out with the packaging process for any of the above, I'd love
|
||
to hear from you. If your distribution isn't included and you'd like it to be,
|
||
get in touch as well and we'll see what's possible.
|
||
|
||
Finally, this won't stop me producing Ubuntu PPA or openSUSE build service
|
||
packaged binaries for those that prefer to stay at the cutting
|
||
edge.
