Description
We are building a portable live Linux distribution based on Porteus Linux. Porteus itself is a fork of Slax that has been brought up to date with Slackware 13.37 and uses a 2.6.38.8 kernel. Porteus can use binary packages from Slackware 13.37.

Packages built for Byzantium
- CherryPy - Porteus and Slackware don't package it so I made one for us. It's been checked into Git.
- pySetupTools - Required for installing some Python modules.
- Mako - Python HTML templating system.
- Dependency of the control panel.
- Git - Converted Slackware v13.37 package.
- Curl - Converted Slackware v13.37 package.
- Dependency of git.
- Note: To make git work without "error setting certificate verify locations" errors, you need to run the following command as the root user: git config --system http.sslcainfo /usr/share/curl/ca-bundle.crt
