offer prebuild deb files in a ppa AND add it to debians repositories #67
Comments
Hi @freddii Thanks for bringing up your concern! As there are increasingly more issues coming from Ubuntu/Debian users As I haven't used a Debian-based distro for a while, I do have a few questions regarding best-practices...
Providing a PPA on Launchpad seems possible to me, as far as I remember it is kind of the "simple, unofficial way to bring packages to Ubuntu" But what about Debian? Are Debian users willed to setup a PPA as well or this is mainly considered an Ubuntu-thing? https://wiki.debian.org/CreatePackageFromPPA
To have it in the official repositories would of course be nice, but I somehow doubt qjournalctl is "relevant enough" to have it there. It seems as if you need to convince Debian's package maintainer, so they package and add it. https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/pkgs.html#new-packages |
There is some help about "Request for Package" for debian at: https://wiki.debian.org/RFP So you have to do a bug report at debian where you request qjournalctl for packaging. you can do that by running in terminal: reportbug -B debian Number 1, ITP, is what to pick if you have packaged it and want to submit it. RFP are listed at: Maybe you @pentix as the programmer can do that bug report. |
It would be handy to have qjournalctl in debians repositories.
Are there any plans to bring it to debian?
It would also be useful to have prebuild deb packages in a ppa at https://launchpad.net .
So people can install it with getting updates and without having to compile it themself.
