Hello again everyone.  After a chat on IRC with tianon, I’ve whittled down the required dependencies for fleet by a lot.  Most of the ITP’s I created were for libcontainer, which turns out to be already present in golang-docker-dev.  This means a lot of wasted work but hey I know a lot more about Go than before!

The final list of packages for fleet is:

* fleet
* golang-clockwork
* golang-globalconf
* golang-go-semver
* golang-go-uuid
* golang-goini
* golang-go-systemd (>= 2~git20150505)

That’s a much more manageable list really.  

Changes made since I posted this original email:

* verified license for debian/* identical to package license
* removed convencience copies of code for fleet
* set urgency=medium in d/changelog

Note that an update to golang-go-systemd to add some new files is required, which I’ve just send another email about.

Thanks!


Tim.
