I'm puzzled by the sizes of the packages. Packages for Debian by Maurilio and James are 13-14 Mb to download whereas Ubuntu packages by Scott are only 7-8 Mb. Anyone see any reason for this ?
1. Ubuntu debs are split into a base and a -dev pkg containing the includes. 2. Ubuntu debs are lzma compressed, while those for Debian are gzip'ed. /Björn
