i have been building my own gpgme packages for the last 5+ years
because of all the indecision & nitpicking.
If it helps, here is an updated branch:
https://salsa.debian.org/twolife/gpgme/-/commits/gpgmejson
details:
- i put the gpgme-json binary in a new 'gpgme-bin' package and not
'libgpgme-dev' as this is not a dev/debug/test utilitie
- the browser manifests are shipped in the same package, a 5 lines
json file doesn't justify the overhead of splitting it in another
package
- thanks to Sascha Wilde for the manpage i stoled in the previous MR
i have the feeling i'm sending this email to /dev/null :'(
graybeards blocking progress because "this is my sacred garden that
young fools will not taint" is unfortunately pretty common in debian
land :'(
