KDE4/Qt4 based package manager

  • Mentor: ?

  • Summary: There is no full package manager integrating nicely with Qt4/KDE4 for Debian

  • Required skills:

    • Understanding of package system
    • Skills in C++ programming
    • Skills in KDE4/Qt4 programming
  • Description: Current possibilities is to try look at aptitude-gtk and make a -qt version (see Daniel Burrows). Another possibility is to try revive adept (see Peter Rockai)

Note: Daniel Burrows (Aptitude developer) mentions that since aptitude-gtk is still in development, there is no way he can work on a qt version right now, at least not this summer.
