The copyright and license information for software that is distributed with the Hurd software is important. Debian has its DFSG guidelines. Other distributions will need to address these same issues.

Install Instructions

Currently, Debian's installation instructions are the most up-to-date. [[Hurd/InstallNotes]] is an errata companion document with more helpful hints that have not yet been incorporated.

Debian Installer

Work has been started by James Morrison and Glenn McGrath to [[PortDebootstrap]]. There is also a [[NewDebianInstaller]]. Why should Hurd folks care? It's important because this is the next generation installer that is intended to be used by all ports when Sarge is released.

What does it take to move a piece of Debian packaged software to the GNU/Hurd port?

Debian Infrastructure
-
Testing is critical in helping the development effort. Bugs (defect reports) can be filed against the Debian software package in which they are found. [[debian/patch_submission]] tells how to file a Debian bug report. [[DebianPackages]] has some information about how Debian splits the software into packages and some references. There is a buildd autobuilder compiling the Debian Sid archive software for the GNU/Hurd port. [[BuilddStatus]] includes information on the buildd & turtle efforts.

-
Uninstallable packages
-
Many packages depend on these uninstallable packages. So building one of them will allow other to be build too.

Technical References
-
There are many standards and documents that might be applicable for those interested in developing software.

Debian Todo
-
Packages needing attention. A possible use of this site could be to help track similar needs via [[HurdWnpp]]. This is not yet implemented.

-
[[GnuDistributionRumors]]
-
There are some discussions and several rumors circulating about creating a completely new distribution, not using a Debian architecture.
-
# Misc. -
-
Why a separate section of the website for this?
-
There are fundamentally different issues about distributions compared with coding. Distributions are concerned with final default configurations of packaged software and system integration as they use many software packages and help give users a sense of using an OS "product."
