jhconvert
Preamble
The main purpose of this project is helping people to package Sugar for various non-mainstream Linux distributions. If Linux distribution is not Debian/Fedora/Ubunty based and there is lack of human resources to maintain packages, that project could be valuable.
How it works

- fetching dependencies from sugar-jbuild (native sugar building system)
- adding distro-independent content like common package dependencies, various strings, urls etc.
- using distro-specific templates to generate native packages
Supported distros
Currently supported followed distributions:
