Dear list,
opencpn is on hold, waiting for review of the wvsvg dependency [1]. I
have uploaded a draft packaging of latest release 4.8.6 to salsa
(remarks are welcome!)
In the meantime, I have looked into packaging some of the most important
plugins. The issue here is that several of them contains pre-compiled
binaries. The reasons are obvious: these plugins handles various
confidential chart formats.
On Fedora, I would have to package such plugins outside Fedora,
practically speaking this would mean rpmfusion.
How are such things handled by Debian?
Cheers!
