* Package name : libgourou Version : 0.9 Upstream Author : Grégory Soutadé <[email protected]> * URL : https://forge.soutade.fr/soutade/libgourou * License : LGPL-3+ (library), BSD-3-clause (utils), Expat (Base64.h) Programming Lang: C++ Description : free implementation of Adobe's ADEPT e-book protocol
libgourou implements the Adobe ADEPT protocol (the one used by Adobe Digital Editions) with which bookshops and public libraries distribute ePub and PDF files. It can register a device with an Adobe ID, fulfill an .acsm token to download the book, return a loaned book and remove the ADEPT protection of a book the device is allowed to read. There is no Adobe client for Linux; today Debian users have to run Adobe Digital Editions under Wine to read the books they bought or borrowed. Binary packages: libgourou0, libgourou-dev and libgourou-utils (acsmdownloader, adept_activate, adept_loan_mgt, adept_remove). Points I would like feedback on before the upload: - adept_remove removes the ADEPT protection, using the key of a device registered with the user's own account. No Adobe key is shipped. I would rather raise this now than at NEW; the rest of the package is useful without that tool if ftp-master prefers it left out. - upstream links uPDFParser (same author, not in Debian, tagged v0.1 for this packaging) statically; I ship it as a component tarball. I am a Debian Maintainer and will need a sponsor for the first upload. The packaging will go to salsa.debian.org; a first version (0.9-1) already builds in sid, lintian-clean, with passing autopkgtests.
