FTR, the PPA is here: https://launchpad.net/~tails-team/+archive/ubuntu/tails-installer Instructions can be found on this page.

#3 Updated by sajolida 2015-12-11 08:20:37

  • Assignee changed from sajolida to tchou
  • QA Check set to Ready for QA

Done, except:

  • “Add toggle” as it was small enough to fit in a tip.
  • “Add menu path for Tails Installer”: I’ll wait until the package is in Debian to test this.
  • “Explain that you have to open a terminal and how” since you don’t need to open a terminal anymore.

So please review what we have already, but I shouldn’t merge until the package is in Debian (or otherwise adapt it).

#5 Updated by tchou 2015-12-12 05:38:12

  • Assignee changed from tchou to sajolida
  • QA Check changed from Ready for QA to Pass

#6 Updated by sajolida 2015-12-15 04:07:26

  • Target version changed from Tails_1.8 to Tails_2.0
  • QA Check changed from Pass to Dev Needed

Ok, so marking this as Dev Needed again until the Debian package is ready. This won’t happen today, so I’m postponing.

#7 Updated by sajolida 2015-12-20 07:55:32

I finally did a first merge of this as the Debian package won’t be ready before the beta.

I created Bug #10953 to bring back the Debian package so I can close this and clean my view.
