TODO
====
- [X] Download latest upstream source
- [X] `dh_make`
- [X] `dch`
- [X] Add minimal debian/control file from the [upstream packaging][1]
- [X] Edit debian/control to deal with some of the required fields
- [X] Add Vcs from Phab
- [X] Get under `git`. Finally.
- [ ] Dependencies
- [X] 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.
