Re: [Tails-dev] Maintaining I2P
I'll spend the next 1-2 weeks getting familiar with the package maintenance process. Any and all information/documentation would be great. Thanks!

Yes, see: https://geti2p.net/en/download/debian#debian > And thus, that the code used to generate that package is available? I'm sure zzz would make this and any documentation available on request if it isn't already. The I2P sources has a `debian` directory: https://github.com/i2p/i2p.i2p/blob/master/debian/changelog but the changelog hasn't been updated for 5 months, since version 0.9.27. I *just* stumbled upon zzz's twitter and found some tweets indicating that someone else already might have taken over the Debian packaging from zzz: https://twitter.com/echeloni2p/status/842030392525914117 https://twitter.com/echeloni2p/status/842012052260589568 Any way, I want to stress the fact that whoever works on integrating I2P into Tails does *not* have to be the I2P Debian package maintainer as well.

That might be helpful for Alexandre I guess.

For the Debian packaging aspect, I recommend starting with: https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/packaging-tutorial/ For the Tails integration aspect, the best entry point we currently have is: https://tails.boum.org/contribute/how/code/ Cheers, -- intrigeri ___ Tails-dev mailing list Tails-dev@boum.org https://mailman.boum.org/listinfo/tails-dev To unsubscribe from this list, send an empty email to tails-dev-unsubscr...@boum.org.
Re: [Tails-dev] Maintaining I2P question
Hi, Alexandre Trottier: > In order to maintain I2P do all I need to do is build binaries from source > install onto a test distribution and make sure it works. Well, not exactly: there is also integration development + maintenance work, to make I2P work fine in the context of Tails. So there's Debian packaging, system integration work, and (as usual in Tails) communication with our technical writers and UX team to ensure the integration is up to our standards :) I'll let anonym follow up, since I think he has the list of the top-priority issues we want to see fixed in I2P integration before it's reintroduced into Tails.
