Dear all,
My name is Leandro Doctors, and I am a fervient (albeit beginner)
Clojure user :-)
For this GSoC 2021 session, I would like to improve the Clojure
packaging in Debian.
(Although I have to confess it: GSoC is simply the best excuse I could
come up with in order to focusing on my path towards, eventually,
becoming a Debian Member :-)
Elana Hasham (whom I had approached last year with respect to this
very same task) kindly got me in touch with Louis-Philippe Véronneau
(pollo). After a few exchanged emails, Louis-Philippe kindly accepted
mentoring me :-)
He added a few more details on the GSoC 2021 wiki page [1].
[1] GSoC 2021 Ideas page:
https://wiki.debian.org/SummerOfCode2021/Projects#SummerOfCode2021.2FProjects.2FClojureBuildToolsinDebian.Clojure_Build_Tools_in_Debian
My proposal involves fixing #891136[2], #891141[3] and #902763 [4],
finally making clojure-CLI tools and basic libraries such as
clojure.spec available in Debian.
(Depending on how fast I progress on this, I could also try adding
something else... That being
said, I don't want to underestimate this task - from what I could see
in the comments on those bugs, the required amount of work for
packaging the long dependency chain for clojure.specs.alpha seems
non-trivial...)
In order to further iterate on this, I plan to share a full draft on
the wiki (at the latest) by the end of next week. I will let you know
as soon as I do this.
Looking forward to hearing from you soon,
Leandro
