OK, acknowledged.

The above link refers to RPM build systems only, doesn't it?

I think our focus should be:

   o provide tarballs with proper Makefiles
   o offer these tarballs (or the Git itself) for other (RPM-base) packagers
   o concentraint on our .de-based testing environments

To my mind the reasons why we build Debian/Ubuntu packages are primarily

   (a) testing developmental code
   (b) continuation of providing .deb packages for current X2go users
       (most of them Debian/Ubuntu) until X2go is officially in Debian

The idea about the build-main tag is that we give packagers a  
recommendation on what code base to use for packaging stable X2go code.

The build-main tag will mostly point to the latest release, but  
sometimes it will point to a newer commit (i.e. a commit that contains  
a valuable update for an internal package revision for our own .deb  
packages).

Greets,
Mike
