I am interested in packaging tchack.I am quite busy this week, however, so if someone could please file an ITP for it, on behalf of this team, then that would speed up things a bit.
i might add the soundcard allocation in the future. (which adds dbus dependency) but i am not completely sure if i want to do that, since it could also be done using scripts.
If you mean to say that the package maintainer can just as well implement dbus support through distro-local hacks, then I certainly recommend that you do it properly upstream, in a generic way.
If you mean that you can upstream implement it either as proper C/C++ code or as shell wrappers, then that's a choice you are free to make as upstream. If you want dbus support to be optional, then perhaps make it so at build time.
If you meant something else, then please elaborate. Kind regards, - Jonas -- * Jonas Smedegaard - idealist & Internet-arkitekt * Tlf.: +45 40843136 Website: http://dr.jones.dk/ [x] quote me freely [ ] ask before reusing [ ] keep private
