Bug#946605: ITP: libportal -- Flatpak portal library
Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Simon McVittie <smcv@debian.org>
* Package name : libportal
Version : 0.1.0
Upstream Author : Matthias Clasen
* URL : https://github.com/flatpak/libportal
* License : LGPL-2.0+
Programming Lang: C
Description : Flatpak portal library
libportal provides GIO-style C APIs for most Flatpak portals' D-Bus
interfaces. It is primarily intended for installation in Flatpak runtimes,
where applications can use it to interact with portals; it can also be
used to test the portal services.
See the xdg-desktop-portal package's description for more information
about portals.
----
This is useful to package in Debian so that it can be included
in Flatpak runtimes that are based on Debian packages, similar to
flatpak-xdg-utils. It is also used in the automated tests of newer
versions of xdg-desktop-portal.
In addition to the library, this source package will build
org.gnome.PortalTest, a simple GTK application that interacts with
portals and can be used to test them.
