Debian for use in Macintosh environments

Debian GNU/Linux is powerful for many things. One of them is working together with Macintosh systems.

  • Debian workstations working together with Macintosh workstations
  • Debian providing services for Macintosh workstations
  • Debian workstations using Macintosh services
  • Debian bridging Macintosh and Windows workstations.
  • Debian skins to look like a Macintosh

This page tries to collect and organize info on the many ways Debian can interact with Macintosh.

One goal is a set of metapackages officially inside Debian, as a DDD:

  • macos-net-services - network services relevant for Macintosh workstations
  • macos-tools - tools to deal with Macintosh-specific data
  • macos-desktop - make your Debian workstation look more like a Macintosh
  • macos-dev - tools to help port Debian software to Macintosh
