Bug#144327: ITP: libversit -- vCard/vCalendar C interface



Package: wnpp
Version: N/A; reported 2002-04-23
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : libversit
  Version         : 1.3
  Upstream Author : None at the moment
* License         : Custom DFSG-free (s.b.)
  Description     : vCard/vCalendar C interface

libversit is a C library to parse and create vCard and vCalendar
files. It is currently used by Ximian Evolution as well as
GNOME-PIM.

If you plan to use libversit for new projects, you should consider
to use libical, instead, as it is actively maintained and supports
the later iCalendar standard as well.

Rationale: Currently, libversit is statically linked to GNOME-PIM
and Evolution, which is fine, since it's a small library that's not
widely used and not actively maintained, either. But now I as the
upstream maintainer of GNOME-PIM got the request to separate the
sources of libversit from GNOME-PIM, since somebody wants to use it
for his own project. Because of that I will start to link GNOME-PIM
dynamically against it and so I need a separate package.
