1.  By clicking on the text beneath the penguin, you're taken to the right place further down the page, but if you click on the penguin itself, you're still taken to the old page. I assume this was just an oversight, so I've made this change. I hope nobody minds.

Yep, forgot to change those lines (also happened when clicking Linux distro images). Fixed all of them.
 

2.  Would it be better to have a title above the linux packages saying Linux Packages...
i.e.
Globulation 2 beta 2 (0.9.2)

[The four pictures]
[the text beneath them]

Linux Packages

[The pink box]
[The pictures of the different distributions]

Yep, makes sense. Changed.

 
3.  Is it worth mentioning that you can get glob2 in ubuntu through apt-get? They're the same version as the .deb packages listed on the download_and_install page

Missed that command from the old download page (was lumped in with Debian). Updated.
 

As a side point... how easy is it to build packages to go into the apt-get repositories? How do you get them into the repos?... I imagine a lot of relatively new users on linux would struggle to install all the required dependencies and compile from source, and so would just end up using the old versions.

I can tell you that its hard to get your package for Mandriva into the repositories. When I last checked, you had to apply, be accepted, update, put it into cooker, have it tested, then maybe have it moved to contrib (or along those lines).

Theres nothing stopping you from making a package and distributing through the wiki though.



Thanks for your comments.
