Google Git PURL type #326

Closed jsdratm closed 3 weeks ago

jsdratm commented 2 months ago

I ran across this software component and I'm having trouble determining a PURL for it:

https://chromium.googlesource.com/libyuv/libyuv/

Any thoughts?

jkowalleck commented 1 month ago

how about pkg:generic/libyuv?vcs_url=https://chromium.googlesource.com/libyuv/libyuv ?

pombredanne commented 3 weeks ago

I second @jkowalleck suggestion for now. We should also refine and evolve generic types, possibly using domain names as an adjunct, and/or considering publishing a open registry of known generic PURL especially for C/C++ packages, or even a new type for these, but here https://chromium.googlesource.com seems to strictly be a git host.

Making this a discussion, in case there is more to it than the eye can see!
