Presage accepted in Debian

I am glad to announce that presage has been accepted into Debian Sid and migrated into Debian testing. presage-0.8.6-1 was built, signed, and uploaded on Sat, 6 August 2011.

As this is the first upload of the presage package, it was moved to the new/ directory, where it waited for approval by the ftpmasters.

Once the package was accepted, I got a confirmation mail and the “Intent To Package” bug was closed.

The auto-builders then started crunching away to recompile presage on the various architectures. The package is now installed in the Debian archive for all officially supported architectures

Presage has also been built and installed on some of the debian ports architectures.

So, from now on, you are only a simple command away from using presage on any Debian installation:

`apt-get install presage'

or you might want to try out the GTK+ predictive text editor `gprompter’ with:

`apt-get install gprompter'

or maybe the wxPython predictive text editor `pyprompter’ with:

`apt-get install pyprompter'
