Now that 2.7 is stable, I’m working on getting an updated package into the main package repository.<div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">I’m also working on packaging bzr plugins as well. In some cases, these plugins are easy to install manually, but in cases where there are dependencies (especially qbzr), installing on OS X can be difficult without a package manager. I have packages for:</div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><div class="">bzr-bisect</div><div class="">bzr-difftools</div><div class="">bzr-explorer</div><div class="">bzr-extmerge</div><div class="">bzr-fastimport</div><div class="">bzr-git </div><div class="">bzr-xmloutput</div><div class="">bzrtools</div><div class="">qbzr</div></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">One of the issues that I’m having with packages is that homebrew needs tarball release files. The other issue is it’s not clear which plugins are maintained and still widely useful. Do we have an idea which plugins are still viable? Is it possible to create tarball releases for them?</div><div class=""><div class=""> <div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;" class=""><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;" class=""><div style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; orphans: 2; text-align: -webkit-auto; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;" class=""><span class="Apple-style-span" style="line-height: normal; border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px;"><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -webkit-nbsp-mode: space; -webkit-line-break: after-white-space;" class=""><div class=""><br class="Apple-interchange-newline">- Fred McCann</div><div class=""><a href="mailto:fred@sharpnoodles.com" class="">fred@sharpnoodles.com</a></div></div></span></div></div></div> </div> <br class=""></div></body></html>
