Notes on porting to Mer:

  • Python package dependencies change
    • I switched to python2.6
    • I removed version numbers from my deps (like python2.5-gtk)
    • python-glade needs to be explicit
      • Has installation problems as a dependency, after manually installing it and agreeing to some random question, installation of my package worked
    • python-xml requires python-launcher not to be installed
  • Py2Deb
    • It puts package deps in the *.dsc build deps, manually delete them
    • It also does not follow the new category system
  • Other
    • run-standalone.sh is broken due to a missing dependency, so I remove it from my *.desktop file when building for Mer
