Dear Raphaël,

So you are the second French guy around...

Nice to hear from you. We really appreciate your help. As Dave already
answered, you can start with the unix_compilation.html page in CVS. I updated
it today to remember to add a simlink, otherwise compilation will fail.

Maybe you should also have a look at the wxGTK2ud.spec and pgadmin3.spec files
which areat the top of the CVS root. It gives the list of the required files
to install. Also, I chose the wxGTK2ud-2.5-dateoftheday for the wxGTK 2.5
packages, but you may have other naming conventions at Debian...

When you are finished, how do you plan to distribute the package? Because
pgAdmin3 is under heavy development, it sometimes needs a daily build to keep
track of evolutions and bug fixes. Do you plan to upload daily packages to
snake.pgadmin.org? Or do you plan to use Debian repositories?

Also, it would be nice to describe the needed steps for compilation in
snapshots.html pages in docs folder (this page was added today).

Cheers,
Jean-Michel
