OpenPGP.js is in even better shape today when this bug was filed, but it<br>
hasn't been included in debian yet. This is an e-mail asking about the<br>
best next steps to get it into Debian.<br>
<br>
(btw, URL should be <a href="https://openpgpjs.org/" rel="noreferrer" target="_blank">https://openpgpjs.org/</a> these days)<br>
<br>
I need OpenPGP.js in debian in order for me to upload the upcoming<br>
enigmail 2.0 release, because enigmail 2.0 includes OpenPGP.js, and<br>
upstream only has the minified versions available, which clearly isn't<br>
DFSG-free.<br>
<br>
I'm not very skilled with the node/grunt toolchain in debian, or with<br>
the current debian javascript packaging policy but i'd be happy to learn<br>
if someone wants to give me pointers.<br>
<br>
the upstream documentation looks like it can prepare everything for<br>
publication with:<br>
<br>
npm install<br>
npm test<br>
<br>
but that itself looks likely to use network access which is something we<br>
can't depend on during the debian build.<br></blockquote><div><br></div><div>Indeed.</div><div> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
Should i try to follow the npm2deb guidance here:<br>

Also, is libjs-openpgp still the best-practice name for the debian<br>
package for OpenPGP.js? I'd be happy to take over this RFP if i can get<br>
