Package repository
 

Hi,

does Dragora have a package repository of extra software, besides the packages that comes with the install cd? If so, how does it work? If not, is it feasable to create a 3rd party repo in the spirit of www.slackbuilds.org?

PS! Keep up the good work guys :)

Hi dansimon! A few members maintain repos of their own, you can find good packages here http://gungre.ch/dragora/repo/ just downloaded the package you want and add/upgrade with pkg. This repo is maintained by frusen, there you can also use jul http://gungre.ch/cgi-bin/cgit.cgi/jul/ a script to automatically download and install dragora packages, it is not fully featured yet but is good, and has all the packages in the repo (I think :p), test it is also a good way to support.

Does anyone know of any other repositories not listed on Dragora's website? I've been struggling to obtain 3rd party packages for GNU Emacs, Ardour, etc.

Hi, the only packages available are the official ones provided by the mirrors http://dragora.org/repo.fsl/wiki?name=Mirrors and the contributed packages in gungre.ch and csphy.blue (that mirrors gungre). It is not hard to compile your own package, but if you have a hard time doing that you can bug us on irc and ask for packages and we will do our best to provide it to you, remember we are a small team and the efforts are going towards Dragora 3 so don't expect new packages for Dragora 2,
