Re: RFS faber - build dependency for boost-python
Hi Steffen, thanks for your work and packaging effort. I will take a deeper look into the package within the next few days. On behalf of the Debian Boost Team. Best regards Anton Am Di., 8.

Please kindly check the buildability of the package using a clean chroot (automating this with pbuilder or sbuild, or anything doing similar job at your preference. :) I had to append python3-yaml to the build dependencies to go through the build and test process. There were some Lintian issues afterwards, which you might want to address: W: faber: useless-whatis-entry usr/share/man/man1/faber.1.gz I: faber source: debian-watch-contains-dh_make-template [debian/watch] I: faber: spelling-error-in-description platoform platform I: python3-faber: spelling-error-in-description platoform platform (With help2man, you can set the whatis entry with --name flag.) You will have to document as well the following files in d/copyright, as otherwise the package would probably get rejected from NEW: - doc/_static/boost.css - src/faber/termcolor.py - src/faber_bench/images/stop.svg (looks CC0/public domain, but I am unsure) Maybe I missed other files, so don't hesitate to do one more review on your end. I don't have access to the Debian Python team repository, so I haven't pushed nor uploaded anything. In hope this helps,

RFS faber - build dependency for boost-python
Hello, This is about https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/faber I had asked the Debian boost folks already to comment on that package but have not heard back. Faber is a build tool that the upstream boost community has elevated as the next thing for their Python interface. But it can also be used as a substitute for make. Anyway. Could someone please have a look that I have not borked to smoothen the transition through NEW? Please feel free to upload. Many thanks! Best, Steffen
