@emmapeel: Which one is the missing module?

The developer will welcome help on packaging weblate for Debian, as currently has no time to learn to package Django apps in Debian.

Some work has been done already at:

i filed a request for package: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=+796777

It was suggested to me that we email the person who created the git repo in debian originally and ask why he stopped working on it. Doing that now.

I’ve received a positive answer from Martin Borgert who is still interested in packaging but needs help.

Here are the issues he listed:

Incomplete list of current issues:

1. I did not test the package at all. It might even eat your
hamster!

2. There are a lot of lintian errors and warnings, see below.

a) At least the “privacy-breach-piwik” errors are unfounded,
because Piwik will only be used if the variables PIWIK_URL
and PIWIK_SITE_ID are set. And they are not, by default.
This is probably a tender spot for you :~)

b) The .ttf fonts should just be deleted from the package and
replaced with proper depends.

c) The same goes for jquery and bootstrap. Other JS files must
be replaced with the original source from whatever upstream
and minified in the build process.

d) Backup files can be deleted during build.

e) Same for the images under /usr/lib/python2.7/

f) extra license files must be checked, added to debian/copyright
if necessary and then removed during package build

3. We should use dbconfig-common for the database setup in
post-install.

4. We should autopkgtest the package.

Any help appreciated!

There are some new dependencies, because of changes on the
python-social-auth code, see:
https://github.com/omab/python-social-auth#deprecation-notice---2016-12-03

I have added 854895 and 854894 to the Debian BTS for them.

I’ve just sent a comment to that RFP.

Even if Weblate was in Debian, I’m not sure we would want to install the package from there:

• We would have little control over when it’s upgraded (and then things we be broken occasionally until we manually fix them).
• If the Debian packaging does not handle DB migrations perfectly, pretty often it gets in the way more than anything.

So I’d rather focus our efforts on having Weblate’s dependencies in Debian: installing them from PIP is super slow (every time we run Puppet), lacks code integrity verification, and conflicts with our security policies when we want to work on this locally.

See Feature #10038#note-30 for the updated list of missing deps, if you still want to work on this. Note that you don’t have to: it’s also fine to just reject this ticket.
