Hello, My name is Casey and I was hoping to volunteer to help package/maintain the PDAL library. I am not the author, just a user of the library. I would like to be able to use apt to get current binaries instead of conda. I currently work as a scientific programmer and consider myself comfortable with git, patches and various compilers. I have experience packaging PDAL specifically as a Julia language package(https://github.com/JuliaPackaging/Yggdrasil/commits/master/P/PDAL/build_tarballs.jl). Beyond that I have packaged a large number of other binaries for the Julia language, covering many combinations of linux/windows/OSX, 32/64 bit and x86/arm archs (see
https://github.com/JuliaPackaging/Yggdrasil/commits?author=crghilardi for an exhaustive list). I have a working build of the most recent PDAL tag 2.8.3 locally in docker using gbp. I have tried to created a salsa account (wy-cghilardi) but get a 422 (change rejected). Please let me know if I can provide any more info. Best, -Casey |
