slam's 64bit Software Repositories for Debian sid and sidux



This is my private collection of (mostly proprietary and partially closed source) packages I personally need and use on sidux64.
At the moment I have included Skype, GoogleEarth, Picasa, Flash-10 and VirtualBox.

They do work fine for me and should work for you, so feel free to use this repository.
However, please understand that this is absolutely unsupported.


Let me add that I strongly recommend to use FOSS (free and open source software) alternatives over some packages contained here:
I use Skype against better knowledge, just because some of my clients do insist on it (while there is much better software out there).
And I use GEarth because there unfortunately is no serious competitor to it.
I avoid all other Google products - ask me why, if you are interested.
Flash-10 is included as this is the easiest way to install it at the moment.

Thanks to SUN for feeding Virtualbox and the community developing it - commercial solutions based on it are available on request.

On Debian Sid and sidux (might also work on $buntu, but I definitely do not care for that), Run these commands as root:

su
touch /etc/apt/sources.list.d/slam64.list
echo 'deb http://maledivenhilfe.com/debian/ ./' > /etc/apt/sources.list.d/slam64.list
apt-get update
then use apt as usual, e.g.
apt-get install skype*
apt-get -f install
