We should find maintainers that create the gambas packages for each 
distribution.

I made a gambas.spec file for the Mandrake that I included in the source 
package. But I can only make the packages at my job, where I have a fresh 
Mandrake 10 installation. Not on my own computer, that is a mix of Mandrake 
10 and Mandrake 10.1.

Making gambas packages for a rpm based distribution requires an adapted .spec 
file, and must occur on a fresh install.

In the source package, you will find a gambas.spec file for the SuSE, made by 
Guillermo Ballester Valor, but it must be updated, because dependencies do 
not include version numbers. Any volunteer to update it ?

Alas, even if necessary, I don't have the time to deal with all distributions, 
so I concentrate on the one I use.
