GnuPG's C library, GPGME, has recently adopted/absorbed some common
Python, C++, and Qt bindings into their upstream project.
This means that PyME, GpgMEpp, and QGpgME are all now officially part of
upstream GPGME. In debian, we've uploaded gpgme 1.7.0-3 to experimental
that builds the latest version of all of these bindings. In particular,
it builds the following packages in addition to the stanard GPGME
binaries:
python-pyme
python3-pyme
libgpgmepp6
libqgpgme6
libgpgmepp-dev
These are all stuck in NEW right now, of course :/
However, we also have several remaining copies of GPGME bindings in
debian, and it would be good to reduce their number. This will save the
sanity of our users; will provide better focus for upstream developers;
and will be easier for us to maintain going forward.
In debian, we have:
* src:kdepimlibs, which builds several binary packages, including:
- libgpgme++2v5
- libqgpgme1
We should be able to drop these two binary packages from the build of
src:kdepimlibs; packages linking against these tools should be able
to rebuild against libgpgmepp6 and libqgpgme6. This means that any
build-dependencies should probably move to libgpgmepp-dev instead of
kdepimlibs5-dev
* src:gpgmepp, which builds several binary packages, including
- libkf5gpgmepp5
- libkf5qgpgme5
We should be able to drop this entire source package from the
archive. Any build dependencies should probably move to
libgpgmepp-dev from libkf5gpgmepp-dev.
* python-pyme, which builds the python-pyme package. This should be
superceded entirely by upstream's pyme, so it can probably also be
entirely removed from the archive.
The reverse dependencies are the biggest concern here:
a filtered view of "apt-cache rdepends libgpgme++2v5 libqgpgme1
libkf5gpgmepp5 libkf5qgpgme5"
Turns up the following packages that might need to be rebuilt:
kaddressbook
kde-runtime
kget
kmymoney
libkf5libkleo5
libkf5wallet-bin
libkleo4
libkwalletbackend5-5
libmessagecomposer4
libmessageviewer4
One thing i note is that we have libkleo4 and libkleo5. I don't know
how tightly-bound kde4 is with qt4, but it maybe we want a separate
binary package of libqgpgme that is built against qt4 instead of qt5.
I can look into providing that as a separate build in gpgme if that
would be useful.
Let me know what you think the next steps should be in proceeding with
this cleanup. (or if you think we should abandon the whole thing!)
