HEP Debian packages

Seeing as there don't seem to be any packaged versions of a lot of the CERN and HEPFORGE software packages I've started packaging some them (just the ones I'm using for my fourth year project for now).

I've made a repository at http://packages.lukepomfrey.org/ where the packages are available. You'll need to add the debian-root repo as well for the ROOT packages, and you'll probably want to install cernlibs:

$ sudo aptitude install cernlib cernlib-extras \
   cernlib-base-dev cernlib-core-dev

To use the repository, add the following to /etc/apt/sources.list:

## Debian-root (HEP)
## GPG key: 6620D4F5
deb http://mirror.phy.bnl.gov/debian-root/ubuntu gutsy main contrib

UPDATE: The root packages are now in the Ubuntu universe repositories (if you're running Intrepid at least).

## Luke's repository
## GPG key: 2B440FF0
deb http://packages.lukepomfrey.org/ unstable main non-free contrib

If you only want the the HEP packages from my repository, only use those prefixed by "hep-*".

And then do:

$ gpg --keyserver hkp://subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys 6620D4F5
$ gpg --export --armor 6620D4F5  | sudo apt-key add -
$ gpg --keyserver hkp://subkeys.pgp.net --recv-keys 2B440FF0
$ gpg --export --armor 2B440FF0  | sudo apt-key add -

You can also view the repository by pointing your browser at http://packages.lukepomfrey.org/

So far I've packaged AGILe, HepMC, and FastJet. I'm currently working on getting Rivet and the Genser libraries packaged, so they should be in the repo Real Soon Now™.

UPDATE: I've now got Rivet packaged. The Genser libraries should follow shortly.

People using other packaging systems (RPM, etc.) should be able to download the .deb packages and use alien to convert them to a package they can install, I can't guarentee it won't break them though.

If there are any problems with any of the packages please drop me an email using the contact form.

Information on new packages and package upgrades etc. will be posted in the news section.

UPDATE2: I may try to get something working to make browsing packages via the web a bit prettier (like at http://packages.ubuntu.com/ for example). Until then it'll be fairly ugly. Packages can be found in the "pool" directory if anyone is having trouble.
