Hi!

I noticed that the sigrok and pulseview versions in Debian are
horribly outdated. While the AppImage files work, I'd love to see a
somewhat current version show up in Debian. As it seems, the main
issue is that there are no recent releases in
https://sigrok.org/download/source/pulseview (latest release tarball
is nearly six years old) or
http://sigrok.org/download/source/sigrok-cli (nearly five years old).

I work on Debian as contributor  and I really use sigrok, I can make an effort to get into Debian electronic team and provide sigrok release support over there.

Something that I would really get into through this year is joining the sigrok development, maybe support releases updates under debian is a good starting point.


About keeping Debian release updated against the night build, it would be good if the release add some variable to be compared onto, something like night-$(date --iso),

so 'debian watch'  the system  that checks for software releases can be triggered, and it'll be easier for keep it updated, if not the maintainer is required to check about it manually,


Guess it wouldn't hurt too much dropping a release tarball every now
and then?
That solve about software release motoring being triggered.

Thanks,
   Jan-Benedict
PS: Just used it to snoop on a traditional 50pin 8bit narrow SCSI-2
single-ended bus, that worked perfectly well using the AppImage stuff.
