CHDKPTP debian package

[sufrostico]

Hi there,

Melvin Elizondo y Tony Kong studends in the project of "Información libre y tecnología" (free information and technology) which is part of the "Laboratorio experimental" (a newborn kind of hackerspace) in the Instituto Tecnológico de Costa Rica (Alajuela) are currently working in a debian package for the chdkptp software.

If someone is interested in following the progress, is free to pay a visit to the github repository https://github.com/LabExperimental-SIUA/chdkptp_debian

(is not ready yet, but is close to be functional)

Best regards,
Aurelio

This is great. Installing chdkptp along with its dependencies was one of the most frustrating parts of installing spreads by hand.

Great to see somebody else work on this, too
I've had chdkptp packages in the spreads repository (http://apt.diybookscanner.org/raspbian/ ... c/chdkptp/) for a while now, though it was done in a pretty messy way.
If you feel confident and want to contribute the package to the official Debian repository, get in touch with markvandenborre, he can help you
