Comment 6 for bug 425507

I went with cdbs and python-central. I just updated my branch to build against upstream rev 311 instead of the 0.8.3 release. It only contains the debian dir, but builddeb will automatically pull the upstream source. Just run "bzr bd" (or "bzr bd -S" if you want a source package) to build it.

Is there a better place for this to live rather than under my namespace? Should we create a bzr-explorer packagers team or move it to bzr-explorer-dev? Is their someone on the ~bzr team that would like to handle uploads to ppa:bzr/ppa or should I apply for membership there?

I also see that you did some work in your branch outside of /debian to get the .desktop file translated. I didn't address that with my work as I was looking at it from a downstream packaging perspective. That's certainly something that shouldn't get abandoned, and hopefully committed upstream.

Also, I'm subscribing Debian/Ubuntu Bazaar Maintainers for some guidance on moving forward with getting this into Debian.
