</div>I'm currently packaging TexGen 3.3.2 for Debian (unstable) and Ubuntu<br>
(Lucid+).<br>
<br>
There's a slightly hold-up since Ubuntu Lucid only carries VTK 5.2.1<br>
whereas TexGen needs 5.4+ so I've had to import that from Debian, fix<br>
some FTBFS bugs, and push it to my Ubuntu PPA. There look to be some<br>
issues with the Debian package not bothering to install some files built<br>
by VTK which I'll need to investigate.<br>
<br>
Locally, I can now get quite a way a long way through the build process<br>
with TexGen so I'm guessing I may have it in my PPA by next week.<br>
<br>
Once its been checked out by users maybe its worth you taking over the<br>
package so that all Debian/Ubuntu users can get it from the archives?<br>
