Raw Blame History

TODO

  • Download latest upstream source
  • dh_make
  • dch
  • Add minimal debian/control file from the upstream packaging
  • Edit debian/control to deal with some of the required fields
  • Add Vcs from Phab
  • Get under git. Finally.
  • Dependencies
    • Populate Build-Depends based on requirements from actual compilation
    • Run through list of Depends and eliminate anything unnecessary (seems lengthy)
    • Add to the above based on decisions regarding optional dependencies below
  • Other files…
  • Check over copyright really well
  • Get in a PPA for initial testing first?

Notes

  • There are optional dependencies we might want to turn on by default:
    • zlib for IMAP COMPRESS
    • QtKeychain for secure storage of passwords (in the form of a separate binary plugin)
    • ragel, of which the benefit is not clear ("a pregenerated file is shipped")
    • GpgME++ for PGP
    • Mimetic for S/MIME (goes hand in hand with PGP)
  • In order to successfully pass all tests (final step in the compilation instructions), X is required.
  • Upstream does not seem to want to HTTPS their site. Boo, I know.
