Hello,
I am the developer of rapidgzip. I found this RFP by accident and am
glad that there is demand. I have zero experience with packaging for
Debian, but I would be happy to help if a Debian developer decides to
package this.
Some small adjustments to the metadata:
* Package name : rapidgzip
Version : 0.13.3 (from Git tags)
Upstream Author : Maximilian Knespel<maximilian.knes...@tu-dresden.de>
* URL :https://github.com/mxmlnkn/rapidgzip
* License : MIT
Programming Lang: C++
Description : Parallelized decompression of gzip
In particular, I have filled in my university mail, which I also used for the
corresponding paper, and I have changed the language to C++.
The Python-version is only a very thin wrapper around the C++ code. A Debian
package should build from the C++ source directly.
I am basically only using Python for distributing the C++ CLI and also for
distributing the rapidgzip library for random access and parallel decompression.
