Hi, tl;dr: have a look at stable..feature/8654-encode-apt-suite-in-git, to make sure what I have in mind doesn't feel crazy to you.
In particular, I'd love it if bertagaz and anonym had a good look at it -- I guess they'll at the very least highlight some minor flaws... and hopefully no major ones. This is about https://labs.riseup.net/code/issues/8654, that I had to postpone to the 1.4 milestone in order to keep some sanity last week. The current rationale and various implementation notes can be found on https://tails.boum.org/blueprint/encode_APT_suite_in_Git/ The current design is slightly different from what's in the ticket. It is described in contribute/APT_repository, in the feature/8654-encode-apt-suite-in-git branch. In that branch, I've also adjusted various affected pieces of contributor documentation. Note that I probably won't wait for feedback before I start updating the automated tests we have for this sub-system tomorrow, and perhaps even before I start actually implementing the new design. I'll rush this a bit, not only because I want to go on working on this while I have the problem space in my mind (it takes quite some time to context-switch to this topic), but also because I suspect that I'll find flaws in the design more quickly this way. Still, I'm happy to take feedback :) Cheers, -- intrigeri _______________________________________________ Tails-dev mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.boum.org/listinfo/tails-dev To unsubscribe from this list, send an empty email to [email protected].
