cool!
If you could fine some minutes to trimmer the build-deps, etc would be
awesome.


I managed to do some work on polishing the package, and once Gianfranco has agree, I will pull everything to the "experimental" branch.

From there I am not quite sure how to ask for an upload using the "experimental" branch (or should experimental be first merged to master?)

Thanks to Gianfranco tip, I used
gbp buildpackage --git-debian-branch=experimental --git-ignore-new

I used a docker sid image (which might not be the best, but was at hand on my machine)... and the packages were build. All the 441 post-build tests passed as well. I also updated the autopkgtest script, and it should work as well (although I could not run adt-run or puiparts in docker)

Lintian still gives two types of warnings (repeated multiple times):
1) libcamitk4-data: package-contains-timestamped-gzip
For these ones, I think the best is to redo the gzip upstream (and therefore wait for the next upstream to clean this)
2) debug-file-with-no-debug-symbols for all *-dbgsym package
For this one, I am a bit puzzled. I am not sure at all what causes this error. Is it because the package is build using the "--builddirectory" option:
dh $@ --builddirectory=camitk-build
and all the .debug files end up in another (non default) directory?

Note: I tried to use dh $@ with the --parallel option in d/r, but gbp buildpackage seemed oblivious to it.

everything started by wanting to remove libpng12.  And then we noticed
in how such a bad state unstable was wrt cruft.
For some reason or the other, camitk is entangled in *all* of them; we
have a pad where we are tracking everything, and camitk is on all the
sections :\

Wooah... No pressure then!
Your explanation has accelerated the process and put this packaging task on top of my urgent task list... Hope this will help remove camitk from the bad books...

\o/

Great!  One of us will get to it very soon :)
(guess Gianfranco, as he did most/all of the work)

OK. I will wait to Gianfranco agreement before I pull my commits to the experimental branch (I asked him if he was ok with it).

In the meantime I'll file a RC bug for it, so it'll stay out of testing,
and all the involved parties can notice this version is partially not
working.

Great! Thanks.

There is still more ;)
