• Packaging of new Perl module?

    From =?UTF-8?Q?Hilmar_Preu=c3=9fe?=@21:1/5 to All on Sun Mar 6 13:40:01 2022
    Dear Debian Perl maintainers,

    the Perl module "Encode::EUCJPASCII" seems to be a pre-req for the TeX
    biber package, see [1]. Hence I'd like to see the package in Debian.

    How to proceed? should I simply open an RFP bug and anybody will care or
    should I take over the maintainership like it was done for libencode-eucjpms-perl ?

    Please keep me in Cc, I'm not subscribed to the list? Many thanks!

    Hilmar

    @Hilmar
    I am happy to package Encode::EUCJPASCII under the Debian Perl Team
    umbrella. It does not look like an actively-developed module. I'll
    file an ITP this week.

    @Perl team
    I also wonder whether the Debian Perl Team should adopt the Perl
    packages of Taku Yasui (tach) to maintain going forwards, as tach has
    not been active for quite some time [1],[2].

    Thanks,

    Many thanks for the offer! I've created a preliminary source package,
    which could be used as starter: [1]. Further I need [2], let me know, if
    it could be packaged too. Please drop me the ITP numbers, once they are
    opened.

    Thanks!

    We haven't packaged Mozilla::CA so far because we have
    ca-certificates in Debian and don't want to duplicate the certs. Some
    packages are patched to use it and/or its paths instead of
    Mozilla::CA, others don't need any actual changes.

    Cheers,
    gregor
