Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Uwe Kleine-König <ukleinek@debian.org>
* Package name : public-inbox
Version : 1.5.0
Upstream Author : Eric Wong <e@yhbt.net> and others
* URL : https://www.public-inbox.org/
* License : AGPL-3.0
Programming Lang: Perl
Description : versatile mailing (list) archiver
This software powers https://lore.kernel.org/ and also
http://www.public-inbox.org/ itself. It's the server-side counter part
for b4 that is already packaged in Debian.
Currently I evaluate it to provide an archive for several work related
mailing lists.
Depending on the outcome of this evaluation I might or might not actually
package public-inbox. But as deploying is easy using debian packages I
will create at least simple packaging which should at a minimum give a
good start for someone to pick up from me.
Best regards
Uwe

Probably better to list https://public-inbox.org/hosted.html
instead of its "homepage" as an example. Also, no need for
"www.", URLs with Message-IDs are long enough as they are and
I'm unlikely to ever to want multiple IPs/hosts behind
public-inbox.org.

Great to hear. I'm somewhat familiar with Debian packaging and
debhelper, so I can help.
Fwiw, I've been thinking about providing "make deb-pkg" and
"make bindeb-pkg" targets (identical to what Linux kernel
provides) for end users to build their own packages, too. It
would be non-intrusive to distro packagers (no "debian/"
directory in VCS).

The original mail should have been Cc:d already to there.

I don't feel strong here. I doubt that the homepage field will be used
to create a Message-Id-Link from it.

I already have a prototype at
https://salsa.debian.org/ukleinek/public-inbox
If you want to take a look ... I'm nearly sure the list of dependencies
is incomplete.

Here I also don't care much, I'd use the official package :-)
Thanks for your feedback
