Hi all,

I've been doing some work on packaging INX for Debian/Ubuntu.  The
package is available in my Launchpad "Personal Package Archive" (PPA)
here:
    http://ppa.launchpad.net/bimberi/ppa/ubuntu/pool/main/i/inx/

It's built on Ubuntu Hardy but should install OK on Debian and other
Ubuntu releases.

The package has a plethora of dependencies (listed below), some of
which aren't in the Ubuntu repositories (eg. ceni and asciiquarium).
These packages are available in the INX Developers PPA:
   https://edge.launchpad.net/~inx-devel/+archive/ppa

While it installs and runs OK with many things working well, there are
lots of issues.  A place to work on them collaboratively is needed so
I've set this up:
    http://inx.wikispaces.com/packageissues

Currently access to edit this wiki is open to anyone.  If bad things
start to happen we'll have to start using wikispace's security
features.

Have a play if you can.  All feedback most welcome.  Feel free to add
any issues you find to that page.

Thanks, Dave.
