GNOME 2.12 Live CD contains beta packages + suggestion

[Jaap Haitsma <jaap haitsma org>]

Hi,

Ran the GNOME 2.12 live CD yesterday (I really like the artwork). I 
noticed that it does not contain 2.12 packages but packages of the last 
beta (2.11.92). Furthermore it contains the ubuntu packages of which 
some are heavily patched with features (E.g. the "Add To Panel" dialog) 
which are not present in stock gnome.
Wouldn't it be a good idea to add a debian directory to all projects in 
the desktop such that deb packages can be easily made? These packages 
can then be used for the LiveCD. Furthermore with adding a feature to 
jhbuild these packages could be build automatically. This way people can 
more easily test new features of GNOME.
Of course also rpm scripts could be added for people using rpm based distros
