That ITP is mine, I've just submitted some of the patches I created that fixes some issues that would prevent SOGo from getting into Debian. I've pushed my current work for 1.3.11 to github: https://github.com/dekkers/sope-debian https://github.com/dekkers/sogo-debian I'm using git-buildpackage to build the packages. Things that still need to be done: - I've patched SOPE to be able to use GnuTLS, but not SOGo yet. SOGo is a bit harder because GnuTLS doesn't provide a drop-in replacement for checking of S/MIME signatures. I don't know how much used this feature is, disabling the S/MIME signature checking might also be an option. - SOGo needs to use /etc for configuration (http://sogo.nu/bugs/view.php?id=1156). I did some experimentation with GNUstep and SOGo defaults and concluded that it isn't that hard, but I still need to code and test such a patch. - We should use debconf to ask where to find the SQL and LDAP databases. - A DEP5-complaint (http://dep.debian.net/deps/dep5) debian/copyright file needs to be created. - The bundled javascript libraries need to be unbundled and the libraries from the Debian packages need to be used instead. And there might be more things I'm forgetting and this is just for SOGo 1.3. For SOGo 2.0 there is even a lot more work to be done. I currently don't have much time to work on this as I'm too busy with things that pay the rent or will do so in the future, so any help is more than welcome.
