* Fioddor Superconcentrado: " Jitsi meet packaging" (Sun, 27 Sep 2020 12:10:17 +0200):
Hi, > As user I'm interested in having Jitsi Meet available in FreedomBox. Since > it is a pure Debian blend we need an official Debian package. So I'm > considering to step forward and take over it. > > But > 1) I've never ever packaged any Debian package. > 2) According to this bug, previous attempts have failed, so I guess there > are reasons for that. > > So, any guidance would be welcome. > > I've seen that upstream already provides a .deb file. I guess it needs > further debianisation to be accepted in the archive. At least the original owner of #760485 seems to be the same person that is currently active and in Uploaders at https://github.com/jitsi/jitsi-meet/blob/master/debian/control Best will be to ask him directly why he didn't push to get the packages into Debian main. I have added him on CC. > I plan to: > - Review some introductory videos and documentation on Debian packaging > that I read/watched ago and need a second check. > - Take a look at other installation traces (Yunohost installs it on Debian > and I want to check how they do it, and there's a number of hot to posts > out there). > - Then take the upstream package itself and try to identify the roadblocks. > - Document them before I try to solve them, so that if I bun out someone > can take over and not have to start all over again. > > I'm responding to both the bug tracker and the mentors list. Is the list > for mentors and mentored pupils ment for pupill support or Is it just > mentors-only for coordination? My underlying question is: Should I join > that list? This list is for responding to all kinds of packaging questions, probably best to subscribe.
