[Hamara-devel] Hamara Sugam Testing

[Amardeep Singh]

Hi Raju,

We are moving away from Ubuntu to Debian starting with Hamara Sugam. We
have already created Debain repo for hamara-sugam. I guess it will be
better if you start testing on that release.

We will try to clear out bugs already raised on Ubuntu based
Hamara-Sugam in new debian based release.

Thanks,
Amardeep
