Summary
Astronomy
Debian Science Astronomy transitional package
Debian-Astro is now a separate Debian Pure Blend and allows a fine-grained
control on the topics to install. To ease the transition, this package will
install all user related tasks from Debian-Astro.
Description
For a better overview of the project's availability as a Debian package, each head row has a color code according to this scheme:
If you discover a project which looks like a good candidate for Debian Science
to you, or if you have prepared an unofficial Debian package, please do not hesitate to
send a description of that project to the Debian Science mailing list
