How to contribute

I would certainly appreciate your help! Issues, feature requests and pull requests are more than welcome. I'm guessing I would need much more effort creating more profiles, but any help is appreciated!

Developer warning!

vdist has an extensive test suite to let you be sure you're not breaking anything. Fell free to add new tests.

The point is that I develop in an Ubuntu box, and tests expect some console commands to be available. Those commands are:

  • dpkg: To test packaging for debian distributions. I have that command built-in in my Ubuntu. If you're in another distribution you'll have to search for a package that gives you that console command.
  • rpm: To test packaging for rpm distribution that command is supposed to be available. In Ubuntu you can have it installing rpm package.

If more commands appear I'll try to list them here. Whatever your distribution make sure you have those console commands.
