Hi Kristian,
excellent idea! I would very much support this, especially as I use Fedora as well :) However, packaging is quite different for different distributions, that's one of the reasons why we can't update BaseX in all distros reliably. However, recently there has been some effort to unify application distribution, I personally think flatpak (http://flatpak.org) is the most promising. If you want to contribute and srtart exploring flatpak and try to build a BaseX flatpak app it would be more than welcome. If we would have that users from most major distributions (flatpak currently supports debian, ubuntu, fedora, arch and gentoo) would finally be able to use proper package management.
Cheers Dirk

Hi
Nearly related. I sometimes think of wanting to learn to package software for Fedora. Who should I talk with about a responsibility like this?
I guess the workflow would be quite the same for Ubuntu and other Linuxes, so probably it could be automated to quite an extent within the user community?
Best regards Kristian K

Hi,
Do you know if there is a simple way to install the tagsoup parser in the basex web app servlet - If so, is there an instruction set?
Also, are there any plans to update the Ubuntu repositories with the latest versions?
Many thanks
Ben
