I think the Solus guys would have a word with you. Even with no packaging experience it is pretty simple to create a package for Solus Project.
Here a short intro:

- infinity0 10y agoCome back when they have done this for 24000 third-party packages.
- xorfish 10y agoI don't see the connection. I didn't say that they have more packages, just that they have very good packaging tooling that makes it simple to make consistent packages.
- BuuQu9hu 10y agoWhen you package 24000 things, you find significant diversity in build systems, languages, source code, testing etc. It isn't easy to package all of that in simple ways.
- xorfish 10y agoI don't know exactly to what the 24000 number refers to. Solus Project does already have 5000 packages in the repos. I think that is quite an accomplishment for a pretty small team of 3-4 people with some help from the community.
