[Pkg-giraffe-discuss] preparing and working on kopanocore 8.4.0

[Carsten Schoenert]

Hi,

nevertheless kopanocore is marked for autoremoval in testing [1] I
imported the recently released version 8.4.0.
I guess the autoremoval is related to a FTBFS on mariadb-10.1 [2].

Guido has done a lot preparation work with the version 8.4.0beta1 while
the Kopano Meeting in Arnhem so it was not that much work to do. While
preparing 8.3.4-3 I've done some cherry-picking from debian/sid into
debian/experimental to keep up the things that are needed at all in both
branches in case another beta would be released, but this was not happened.
Before importing version 8.4.0 I merged debian/experimental to
debian/sid. Please note that this all isn't pushed to Alioth as I wanted
to ensure that my work on that all isn't bringing some unneeded work for
us. Currently I haven't tested any resulting packages as I just had a
look at the technical Debian side for now. Hopefully I can do some
testing later.

So, there are of course some internal differences compared to 8.3.x.
Previously private libraries aren't installed to /usr/lib/kopano/
anymore and now installed into /usr/lib/ (on Debian with dh10 to
/usr/lib/S(multiarch-platform)/). This brings in some changes to some
kopano-*.install sequence files.

Also there are some old libraries dropped (or renamed) and new named
libraries are there.

moved/renamed
/usr/lib/libkcpyconv.so.0 -> libkcpyconv-2.7.so
/usr/lib/libkcpydirector.so.0 -> libkcpydirector-2.7.so.0

I assume this somehow related to Python 2.7?

moved/new
/usr/lib/kopano/dbplugin.so -> /usr/lib/libkcserver-db.so
/usr/lib/kopano/ldapplugin.so -> /usr/lib/libkcserver-ldap.so
/usr/lib/kopano/unixplugin.so -> /usr/lib/libkcserver-unix.so

All those previously private libraries have no versioned sonames which
probably doesn't really matter for the designed use case.

The main changes for packaging are related to the changed libraries so
I'm not sure how to handle this, this I just want to figure out if the
chnages I'd made are "correct". I added the three git commits on top of
the upstream import of 8.4.0. Could you please have a look at this and
state your minds on those?

If you think it's good enough I can push my current work to Alioth, but
again, I haven't tested any binary packages yet.
I want to write some small scripting to check easily if all installed
libraries in debian/tmp are somewhere in a binary package. Currently I
know we don't handle /usr/lib/$multiarch/kopano/mapitime as I don't know
which package this is belonging to.

Lintian is showing the following output with the applied patches and for
sure something isn't correct yet. I believe the installation of the
libraries needs to be improved.
