Hi,

I've backported metad's gnash 0.8.7 packages taken from [1] to gNewSense
2.3 deltah. Get them from [2].

[1] gNewSense 3.0 debs:
http://www.getgnash.org/packages/releases/gnewsense/ [2] gNewSense 2.3
debs: http://www.obscurehalt.org/gnash/
Nice. Do you have any plans to contribute this to getgnash.org (to make
it available to deltah and hardy users in a repo) or to create a patch
for deltah's Builder?

Does the latter means that you want to make Gnash 0.8.7 available through deltah-backports repo?

Lots of users would be very happy with better Flash support. If someone provides a nice patch to get a recent version of Gnash into the repo, I'll accept it.

I'm not into gNewSense development yet, so I have to learn how to deal with Builder. Is [1] the best starting point for now?

Yes. Questions are welcome on the gnewsense-dev mailing list or the #gnewsense IRC channel.

to make it available to deltah and hardy users in a repo

IIUC, the deltah-backports repo is suitable for hardy users also, so if I'd go the Builder path, I'd cover the needs of both deltah and hardy users. Have I got it right?

The deltah repos are only meant to be used by deltah users. However, deltah users could use an Ubuntu Hardy repo at getgnash.org. I don't know how hard it would be to set up such a repo. Maybe you can work something out if you talk to Rob in the #gnash channel. He's a busy man and has already helped us a bunch by setting up the metad repo. Maybe if he gets some help it will be feasible to set up an additional repo.
