Great initiative, thanks!!
BTW, Percona MySQL debian package installation breaks when innotop deb package is already installed on system.
Any possibility to add a ‘Replaces: innotop’ line in the debian/control file?

Baron, Arjen
My mistake, sure.
I’ll make cross post to launchpad.net/ourdelta, so you may clean my comments

Hi Vladimir – thanks for the very helpful feedback, but as Baron already noted it’s definitely the wrong place.
Simply go to https://launchpad.net/ourdelta to file bugs and suggestions; that an other links are accessible through the main http://ourdelta.org/ site. It’s really important that this is followed, as otherwise a) things could get very confusing and b) excellent feedback could get lost!

Thanks, Arjen.

Hi Vladimir, this isn’t the right place — we are not in charge of OurDelta. OurDelta is repackaging our patches. I’ll pass this along though. Thanks!

…and one else

Controlfields “Maintainer” and “Original-Maintainer” in deb pkgs, maybe you should change it to yours?

… and almost forget, put lines:
deb http://ourdelta.org/deb hardy ourdelta and deb http://ourdelta.org/deb hardy ourdelta-sail

in files ourdelta.list and ourdelta-sail.list accordingly

Hi.
I’m not sure about right place for this comment, but..

On page http://ourdelta.org/ubuntu it may be useful to change instructions to something like this:

wget -q http://ourdelta.org/deb/ourdelta.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add – (to add the build sign key)

sudo wget http://ourdelta.org/deb/ourdelta.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ourdelta.list
or
sudo wget http://ourdelta.org/deb/ourdelta-sail.list -O /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ourdelta-sail.list (for the bleeding edge build)

(don’t put both in, or your upgrading will get into trouble)

sudo apt-get update

Sure, files ourdelta.list and ourdelta-sail.list must be exist on server

It will be much easier to maintain sourcelists in Debian-based systems.

This is it, sorry if comment in wrong place.
