Bug#924040: #924040 ITP: archivebox -- open source self-hosted web archive

[Nick <nikisweeting@gmail.com>]

Hi all,

I'm @pirate (the ArchiveBox creator).

Thanks for all of your work here so far with trying to get ArchiveBox packaged. I've finally gotten around to packaging ArchiveBox for Debian myself, it's currently on a PPA, if you have any problems/concerns with it just let me know.

https://github.com/ArchiveBox/debian-archivebox
https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/blob/dev/stdeb.cfg

https://launchpad.net/~archivebox/+archive/ubuntu/archivebox

v0.5.3 (the latest version) has a small bug with a missing python package (base32-crockford), but it will be fixed in v0.5.4 which I'll be releasing shortly.

It's my first time packaging for debian so I might've gotten some things wrong, but so far it seems to be working well on my Ubuntu test machines.
