Description

Currently we're only providing a binary Debian repository for i386 and amd64 architectures. With ARM, we'll have to add Armel and Armhf. In order to automate package building, we need a source package that can be fetched by scripts run in a daily cron task. On the other hand, Debian folks would like us to provide a source repository to be able to collect our patches automatically. A dedicated script is being written by Paul Wise, see:

http://lists.debian.org/debian-derivatives/2011/10/msg00061.html

As we already have a binary repository, adding a source one seems quite easy at first glance: we'd just have to add each triplet:

.diff.gz file / .tar.gz file / .dsc file

for each package and run the current script that build the repository META data. Note that our automated script to build binary packages, packages/trunk/build-debs.sh, should certainly be adapted to collect these files automatically.
