The goal of creating packages for the Live GIS Disc is everything required to create a customized version of the Live Disc.
 
−
This includes Debian packages of
 
  
−
* geospatial applications
 
−
* configuration files
 
−
* sample data
 
−
* sample projects and examples
 
−

The efforts to provide Debian packages does not compete with the DebianGIS-project. Our focus is not on creating official packages for any applications. We only package applications where a project's build process or dependencies make it difficult to create a package fulfilling the official requirements and guidelines for a Debian package. Instead our focus is on packaging additional material (data, examples, configurations) in order to make them easily usable for everyone.

−
==Guidelines==
 
−
* Basic rules of reuse apply.  If the same application configuration is used by more than one tutorial, it belongs in it's own package. 
 
−
* Standard version numbering is required to ensure compatibility as tutorials are updated.
 
−
* Packages should be compatible with both Ubuntu and Debian
 
−
* OSGeo should host a package repository for this work
 
−
* Applications should target release to official Debian repositories as a long-term goal
 
−
 
−
==Meta-Packages==
 
−
Also working on packaging applications and additional material makes the collaboration between the different contributors of a project more easy.
 
−
 
−
To allow for easily reproduce packages and repackaging we store scripts, config-files and instructions on how to build each package in the projects [http://svn.osgeo.org/osgeo/livedvd subversion repository].
