Certainly.
Now the packages are build on a 3rd party repository (suse).
Is there any reason the package wasn't brought into Debian?
Yes, upstream code quality is insufficient.
The code of the owncloud-client? Or is only libiniparser the problem?
If its ok for everyone, I will try to get the packages
(owncloud-client, ocsync and libiniparser) into Debian Unstable.
When the packages are accepted, this will be synced with Ubuntu
also.
I think its a good idea to have the packages in debian/ubuntu by
default.
Its much more user friendly then asking the client to add a custom
repository.
Any opinions?
You won't be able to get libiniparser into Debian, it doesn't have a
proper
build system, and it's a lot of code for something rather simple. See
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=582657
In short: it has to be replaced in csync, but Andreas is not
convinced by
that. There's a proposed patch even:
https://open.cryptomilk.org/attachments/download/3/0001-csync_config-Drop-
iniparser-dependency.patch
Its not to difficult (and allowed) to apply the patch in the version to
upload in Debian.
So the package in Debian could drop the depend on libiniparser.
Cheers,
