Looks nice, but it is *not* a real Drupal distro.
It is using db dump file to setup the site, which is not acceptable.
We are happy to add it when it will be done properly.

We've just released Open Deals alpha4 which works as a proper Drupal distribution based on Features.

Hey guys! We just released OpenDeals alpha4 (http://drupal.org/project/opendeals). It now follows Drupal standards for installation profiles. We do not use mysql dump anymore :)

So i think it would be great if you could provide support for OpenDeals too.

This (adding the distro support) needs work.

It seems the install profile (or its documentation) is not complete: http://o1.linode.us.host8.biz/opendeals-7.x-1.0-alpha4.tar.gz

You should either include all required modules or clearly list all of them as a requirements, otherwise in confuses people with errors like here: https://gist.github.com/1398121 - see "Required modules: Required modules not found." error there.

Of course we could add them in Octopus, but I believe it is maintainer's job to either provide a list of required modules (with supported versions) or bundle them with the install profile.

omega8cc, everything needed for the Open Deals installation is included in the zip file. Try this zip: http://www.opendealsapp.com/releases/opendeals-7.x-1.0-alpha4.zip

Hmm, it seems we downloaded it from http://ftp.drupal.org/files/projects/opendeals-7.x-1.0-alpha4.tar.gz

It is rather confusing - why your download link on http://www.opendealsapp.com goes to http://drupal.org/project/opendeals while the real distro is hosted on your own server anyway?

We will try http://www.opendealsapp.com/releases/opendeals-7.x-1.0-alpha4.zip

It is now included in the Octopus head: http://drupalcode.org/project/octopus.git/commit/1bdc2a0

We tried to update a few modules, but for some reason drush mup hangs, plus the security upgrade for Views 7.x-3.0-rc3 breaks the default homepage, so for now it comes with just newer core 7.10 and it works just fine.
