i have read that the packaging files should NOT reside in the same repo. do you know anything about this matter?

shtrom commented 3 years ago

I've seen both, but I think that outside of the repo is preferred. Though some packaging is better thai none (:

I think either lurch of carbon have been packaged separately in Debian since this PR was created. It might be worth checking how they did it. -- Olivier Mehani shtrom@ssji.net Sent from my mobile, please excuse my brevity.

Indeed luckily both have been packaged in Debian and are available there since a few weeks now: https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/purple-lurch https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/purple-xmpp-carbons

Thanks everyone!

Yes, generally it is preferred to have no debian/ directory in upstream's (your) releases. But with modern packaging practices it doesn't really matter anymore, because it just gets discarded and replaced by Debian's debian/ dir.

first off, thanks for the contribution, @shtrom. sorry it took me so long to reply at all.

@jre-wine thanks for clarifying. so since it's already packaged, it probably does not make sense to merge this?

Yup. No worries. -- Olivier Mehani shtrom@ssji.net Sent from my mobile, please excuse my brevity.

@gkdr thanks. From the perspective from Debian and Tails I think there is indeed no need for a debian/ packaging here. Just continue to work with them if they bring up something specific.

i'm closing this then. thanks for the clarification @jre-wine, and thanks for your contribution (and patience) @shtrom :slightly_smiling_face:
