Packages already running on Linux

[The Random Factory]

HI there,
  There is a large set of open source Astronomy programs
already available for Linux , visit www.openastro.com
for a list. It should be fairly easy to repackage most
of these as rpm and deb archives (everything is .tgz presently).

Cheers,
    Dave Mills
