Brandon et al, It's been quite a while (10 months!) since that email exchange and your original ITP. Have you perhaps made any progress towards packaging Kafka? Is there some work-in-progress somewhere in a VCS or something I could pick up and perhaps find time to work on? In any case, if you

Hello Faidon, Thank you for coming to talk to us! And your willingness to review/mentor/upload. Glad to know Wikimedia is listening and willing to contribute. Another reason I did separate packaging work was to get the latest version of Kafka running. We can find some time in the next few weeks

Hi Brandon, Thank you very much for packaging Kafka. In addition to the debian-mentors and debian-java lists you may find some help on the #debian-java IRC channel. I reviewed quickly the package, the main issue is the usage of the gradle wrapper. Since it downloads jars from the internet it

Hey Emmanuel, Thanks for your reply! This is one of the big things I wanted to address first. Would it be OK to include the gradle wrapper jar as part of the repo for building? I don't know the exact policy about binary artifacts in dsc files. Also, what about including JARs not packaging

Hello Tim! Indeed, I'm building the package using Scala 2.9.2 because that is currently packaged for Debian. Gradle wrapper is used instead of Gradle from Debian. I found it to be broken as well. I have the repo for my work here until it goes elsewhere: https://github.com/blbradley/kafka-deb
