https://salsa.debian.org/mentors/wnppDear mentors,
Thank you again for the feedback on the RFS for sys-scan-graph (Bug #1118151).
I have addressed the points previously raised:
1.
**Separate Packaging Repository:** The Debian packaging files have
been moved out of the upstream source repository and are now maintained
separately here:
* `
https://github.com/J-mazz/sys-scan-debian_package`2.
**Changelog:** The `debian/changelog` file has been corrected to
contain only the entry for the initial release (`6.0.0-1`), and it now
references the ITP bug #1118151.
For further context on the package:
* **Upstream Source Repository:** The main C++ scanner and Python agent source code resides at:
* `
https://github.com/J-mazz/sys-scan-graph`*
**PyPI Package:** The Python intelligence layer component is also
available on PyPI under the name `sys-scan-agent`. The Debian package
will ensure correct integration and dependency handling within the
Debian ecosystem.
* **User Interface:** The primary user interface is
command-line based. The Python intelligence layer can generate
comprehensive, self-contained HTML reports for visualizing scan results
and analysis. There is also a separate GTKmm-based graphical UI
(`sys-scan-ui`) in development:
* `
https://github.com/J-mazz/sys-scan-ui`
* This UI interacts with the `sys-scan-agent` via IPC
(multiprocessing queues) and allows users to view findings and provide
feedback.
* **Packaging Plan:** To keep the core `sys-scan-graph`
package focused and lightweight, the plan is to package `sys-scan-ui`
separately *after* the core package has been accepted into Debian. This
current RFS pertains only to the core `sys-scan-graph` (CLI scanner and
Python agent).
I am awaiting approval to
salsa.debian.org. Once complete, I will move the Debian package source there.
