Hi.

I took a few hours last weekend to work on this. While I was able to
have "working" packages for both xpp and i3ipcpp, I could not get
polybar to use them (the whole thing is glued together nicely it seems
and trying to split them caused me headaches).

So I went ahead and worked on packaging the whole repo (and submodules)
together.

Repo: https://salsa.debian.org/jpleau-guest/polybar

Current status: it builds in a chroot and works on my sid install.

TODO:

- There's a few copyright info missing (ie: lib/concurrentqueue)-
- After installing the package, it won't do anything because the config
file is not found (it should be in $HOME/.config/polybar). There is one
shipped in /usr/share/doc/polybar/config.gz, but surely there's a way to
tell the users that when they install the package?

Note that I made a custom get-orig-source rule. The tarball didn't
contain xpp and i3ipcpp (github generated tarballs don't include
submodules). It seems to work fine, feedback welcome on this one..

Thanks
