Some additional Debian armel repositories

Last updated: 24 July 2009

Here are repositories of packages for Debian armel systems.

armel-lenny has some packages that didn't make it into the lenny distribution as well as JACK with the ALSA and firewire drivers enabled
armel-lenny+crunch packages are compiled to include MaverickCrunch FPU acceleration
armel-sid contains more recent versions of things: currently a working Ogg Vorbis encoder

For the best in stable Debian armel, your /etc/apt/sources.list file should contain something like:

    deb http://security.debian.org lenny/updates main
    deb http://ftp.debian.org/debian lenny main
    deb http://debian-multimedia.org lenny main
    deb http://simplemachines.it/debian armel-lenny/

and if you have a Cirrus Logic EP93xx CPU add

    deb http://simplemachines.it/debian armel-lenny+crunch/

and say "apt-get update; apt-get upgrade" as root.

Most are built from unmodified Debian sources or result from adding "armel" to the appropriate Architecture: lines in debian/control. Where changes were necessary to a source package, you will find a patch file in the relevant directory.
