You get major respect from me for making the package work with Maemo 5's on-board utilities without introducing one more dependency (I dislike whatever package, asterisk I think, that installs bash as a dependency for me, for instance).

[edit]
On that note I hope there is a way to get rid of the less and nano dependencies too.
[/edit]

We may agree or disagree on the merits of those possible dependencies and if they should be included in things like CSSU, but everyone wins if with minimal effort, those dependencies can be removed entirely.

The above previous version worked fine with any $EDITOR and $PAGER (e.g. with more and vi from stock busybox), so maybe these dependencies are superfluous.

I'm pretty sure that stock busybox doesn't have $EDITOR and $PAGER defined (prove me wrong).

I will check that some day.

------
One issue with package: git-gui
deb-package seems to be be good, but installing it doesn't give working binaries but symlinks pointing to itself.
I don't know how and why it happens, and I have no idea how to fix it.

This is a workaround to get them working:
Code:
root
#install git-gui
apt-get install git-gui
#unpack package manually
cd ~
mkdir temp
cd temp
ar x /var/cache/apt/archives/git-gui_1%3a1.7.9.5-1-maemo2_all.deb
tar -xf data.tar.gz

#remove non-working symlinks
rm /opt/git/git-core/git-gui
rm /opt/git/git-core/git-citool 
rm /opt/git/git-core/git-gui--askpass

#copy working files on place
cp opt/git/git-core/*  /opt/git/git-core/

#remove temporary files
cd ..
rm -rf temp

These libsvn-perl and libsvn-core-perl belongs to the source package subversion, so it needs also updated to install and use git-svn. Any volunteer to do that?

Squueeeee! (That was a high-pitched squeel of joy, just to be clear.) You're awesome.
