I remembered I had the following page bookmarked: http://www.openblinux.de/en/index.php?page=download Which seems to have the URL for a git repository for SBL. admittedly, I'm not sure this really helps much... Turns out that I do have a copy of some version of SBL's source sitting in my programming folder... skimming some of the files in the debian directory, it sounds like someone might have tried packaging versiong 3.3.something for Debian circa 2008 as some of the files in there mention dates around that time and there's what seems to be skeletons of the kind of metadata stored in /var/lib/dpkg/status for software installed on Debian-based systems and displayed by apt frontends such as aptitude. My system is running SBL 3.5.1+1knoppix1 or something like that and is based on Knoppix 8.5.x or 8.6.x while I think the latest version of Knoppix is 9.something, but only available with acertain issue of the German Linux Magazine. Considering that Knoppix is debian based and that I get the impression its a one man distro, I wonder if Klaus Knopper could provide any insight on how to build SBL for vanilla Debian and its other derivatives, but I have no idea how to contact the man. _______________________________________________ Blinux-list mailing list Blinux-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/blinux-list
