<b>Question:</b> What is available?
<blockquote>
<b>Answer:</b>
<BR>
You can have a look <a href=http://people.debian.org/~bayle/debian/>there</a> to see what's available
</blockquote>
<b>Question:</b> How to get the packages?
<blockquote>
<b>Answer:</b>
<BR>
Add the following lines to you /etc/apt/sources.list
<pre>
deb http://people.debian.org/~bayle/debian stable/
deb-src http://people.debian.org/~bayle/debian stable/
</pre>
or
<pre>
deb http://christian.bayle.free.fr/debian stable/
deb-src http://christian.bayle.free.fr/debian stable/
</pre>
(Christian's pages), or
<pre>
deb http://people.debian.org/~lolando/debian unstable/
deb-src http://people.debian.org/~lolando/debian unstable/
</pre>
or
<pre>
deb http://roland.mas.free.fr/debian unstable/
deb-src http://roland.mas.free.fr/debian unstable/
</pre>
(Roland's pages). Depending on our real life activity, one may
be more up-to-date than the other.<br>
Then run:
<pre>
apt-get update
</pre>
<BR>
You have now several possibilities:
<UL>
<LI>
You never installed any sourceforge or gforge package, just:
<pre>
apt-get install gforge
</pre>
and answer carefully to all the questions, it is preferable to let the install touch your config files,
though it's not the default because of debian policy.
<LI>
You want old sourceforge (more tested than gforge, with themes and foundries, almost the classical 2.6.1 coming from the last known
cvs snapshot from VA.
<pre>
apt-get install sourceforge
</pre>
<LI>
You want new gforge, but you have already sourceforge installed
<BR>
<pre>
apt-get install gforge-sourceforge-transition
</pre>
will dump your db and move your files, then
<pre>
apt-get install gforge
</pre>
will uninstall sourceforge and install gforge with the dumped data
</UL>
</blockquote>
<b>Question:</b> How to get the gforge source code?
<blockquote>
<b>Answer:</b>
<BR>
<UL>
<LI>

<BR>

<LI>
From CVS
<BR>

<b>Question:</b> Where is the savannah project page?
<blockquote>
<b>Answer:</b>
<BR>
<A href=http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/gforge/>http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/gforge/</A>
</blockquote>
<b>Question:</b> Where is the Gforge home page?
<blockquote>
<b>Answer:</b>
<BR>
<A href=http://gforge.org/>http://gforge.org/</A>
</blockquote>
<b>Question:</b> How do I build this packages?
<blockquote>
<b>Answer:</b>
<BR>
go into gforge-3.0 dir and run
<pre>
debuild
</pre>
The debuild tool is in the devscripts Debian package. If you run this
command on Debian Woody (stable), you may have to upgrade some
needed tools (debconf, debhelper, ...). To do that, add the
lines for Debian testing in your apt sources file and then try
something like:
<pre>
apt-get -t <needed version> install debhelper
</pre>
When the packages are built, do the following:
<pre>
mkdir /directory_of_your_choice/debian
cd /directory_of_your_choice
dpkg-scanpackages debian /dev/null | gzip > debian/Packages.gz
echo "deb file:/directory_of_your_choice debian/" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get update
apt-get install gforge
</pre>
</blockquote>
<b>Question:</b> Where do I find help?
<blockquote>
<b>Answer:</b>
<BR>
For more info you can join us on IRC at irc.openprojects.net on #gforge (GForge package) or #debian-devel-fr (French)
<BR>
Mailing lists are there: <A HREF=http://savannah.nongnu.org/mail/?group=gforge>http://savannah.nongnu.org/mail/?group=gforge</A>
