pkg-ltsp Development Page
pkg-ltsp is the Debian "[http://wiki.ltsp.org/twiki/bin/view/Ltsp/MueKow ltsp muekow]" project. It was started recently to tie the best of ltsp Debian and Ubuntu packages, aiming build up a better Debian (and of course Ubuntu too) distribution for thin-client/server environment.

Please note that if you want to help us, you should install bzr debian package, get bzr pkg-ltsp tree (use bzr-get and the location above) and contact us through [http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-ltsp-devel pkg-ltsp mailing list].
How do I merge changes back to the main branch?
The main branch is pkg-ltsp official repository (see above).
It's easy when you're using bzr. You'll need an account on Alioth that is in the pkg-ltsp group. To prepare the branch that you want to merge, first you should pull any remaining changes on the main branch that you haven't yet merged, resolve conflicts, and then use bzr push to send them back to Alioth.
For example:
If you're using bzr 0.7 and prior:
$: bzr branch http://pkg-ltsp.alioth.debian.org/bzr/main $: cd for-merge $: bzr push ../main $: cd ../main $: bzr push sftp://alioth.debian.org/var/lib/gforge/chroot/home/groups/pkg-ltsp/htdocs/bzr/main
or, if you're using bzr 0.8 or newer:
$: bzr checkout sftp://alioth.debian.org/var/lib/gforge/chroot/home/groups/pkg-ltsp/htdocs/bzr/main ltsp-main $: bzr branch ltsp-main my-example-branch $: cd my-example-branch (hack on it, commit and do what you need) $: bzr push ../ltsp-main
