belenios-tool still looks for threshold.json #25

Closed millosolomillo closed 3 years ago

millosolomillo commented 3 years ago

Hello,

Could you please update the package belenios-tool for Debian Buster?

When verifying or validating elections it throws an error as it still looks for threshold.json.

Debian Buster is "stable". It is not meant to be updated, except in some special cases.

Making a backport can be problematic because of the old version of OCaml in Buster.

What I can suggest you is to use an unstable (or testing) chroot. It may even be possible that the unstable binary works directly on a buster system.

And of course, you can still build from sources, using opam (and the opam-bootstrap.sh script).

And you can even run it as a standalone executable, as proved with version 1.13 of belenios, see https://github.com/glondu/belenios/issues/7#issuecomment-808359005
