Bug#745025: Looking for sponsor

[Filip Pytloun]

Hello,

finally got some time to move this forward.
I have packaged dependencies for vdirsyncer and vdirsyncer itself is
waiting for review and upload [1].

I also completely rework Khal packaging, waiting for review as well [2].
So I am expecting Khal will reach Debian unstable soon :-)

I am interested in this package and would like to see it included in
Debian. I spent a brief look into it already and found a number of
issues:

 * debian/copyright: The license grant for the MIT license suspiciously
   looks like a GPL grant and references the non-existent file
   /usr/share/common-licenses/MIT.
 * khal.conf.sample should be installed using dh_installexamples instead
   of dh_installdocs.
 * Your patches say what they are doing, but the patch headers lack
   reasoning on why they are necessary (in particular the second patch).
 * It seems that you are packaging khal as a Python2 application, but
   upstream only declares it working with Python3. Is there any reason
   not to use Python3?
 * Instead of installing the manual page twice, please use a symbolic
   link. Try using dh_link.

At least the copyright issue is a blocker.

If you update the package, please Cc me, so I can have another look.

I am, since I am looking for a CLI CalDAV client for jessie, so I am
also interested in a jessie-backports.

A quick build of your package reveals:

- a non-versioned Depends:

  - python-click (>= 3.2) [jessie-backports: simple rebuild]

- missing Depends:

  - python-tzlocal (>= 1.0) [jessie-backports: simple rebuild]
  - vresyncdir, as you know:

  
  
Thus marking that this bug is blocked until vresyncdir enters Debian.  I

will come back with a more detailed review.

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
