[Kolab-devel] Arch Linux packages

Hi,

I have been working on packaging Kolab for Arch Linux, and I finally have a
complete set of working packages. The main package can be found in the AUR:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kolab/ and pulls many others as
dependencies. There is also some more information in the wiki:
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Kolab

During the packaging process, I've had to patch some packages, specially
pykolab, mostly to modify paths that are different in Arch than in other
distributions. Additionally, I had to write an script (arch-setup-kolab, in
package kolab) to be run previous to setup-kolab, that configures Arch in
order to meet the asumptions made by setup-kolab.

I wanted to know:
- If there is interest in pushing some of this patches upstream. Some of
them should be easy (setup_*.py), but I'm not sure on others (config file
templates, systemd units).
- How to get the packages in the official documentation. I guess that
making a pull-request to kolab-docs is the right way.

Thanks,
Javier
