Hello,
I just finished the packaging of mldonkey. There is two packages :
- mldonkey-server
- mldonkey-gui.
It uses 2.5.1-patches.
I have added some features in this packages :
- mldonkey_server : a launcher for mlnet :
- redirect stdout/stderr to syslog ( messages )
- respawn mlnet when it dies, or when a certain amount of time
has passed ( every 48h for example )
- chuid
- umask
- chdir
- daemon ( for syslog ) / no daemon ( no redirection of
stdout.stderr )
- ask for the creation of ~/.mldonkey
- ...
- mldonkey_options : a program to parse and to set mldonkey options
( according to the syntax of *.ini ).
- mldonkey_command : a program to send command to mldonkey, with
inline option such as -h ( host ) -P port -p password...
- mldonkey_submit : a programm to send dllink to mldonkey ( same
options as above )
I have also patched a little mlnet to be more compliant with debian
( use /usr/bin/see, remove daemon, log_file, closelog ( see
mldonkey_server ) ).
You can run mlnet as a system wide daemon :
- launch at start-up
- run as a daemon ( see mldonkey_server )
- configure via debconf
- use /etc/mldonkey.conf for some setting
deb http://perso.enst.fr/~legall/debian unstable main contrib non-free
deb-src http://perso.enst.fr/~legall/debian unstable main contrib non-free
I wait for your feedback
Regard

ps : i will probably fork mldonkey package between release and CVS,
then will have the same name but not the same apt location
pps : all my program ( mldonkey_server, options, command, submit )
are written in ocaml
ppps : if mldonkey team want to use these program i will send it to
anyone, but i think mldonkey_server run only on Unix like platform
