Re: Future of Trac in Debian
Quoting Sandro Tosi <morph@debian.org>:
So Jan 1 arrived, what do you think we should do? i didnt see any
progress on the port to python3 upstream; should we start filing RM
for trac extensions/plugins and once they are gone, RM src:trac?
I don't expect a Python 3 version of Trac before a year from now.
Debian, the high speed train, overtakes Trac, the steam train!
an initial list of packages for the first pass of RM could be:
$ apt-cache search trac-
libnet-trac-perl - Perl client library for Trac
libtext-trac-perl - module for formatting text with Trac Wiki Style
AFAIK, those two are not Python and can use a remote Trac server,
so they can stay. All others need to be removed.
if i dont hear anything back withing a week, i'll most likely opening
those RM bugs, so that we can work on their transitive dependencies.
Just go ahead. I hope, we can reintroduce Trac in one or two
years, maybe in time for Debian 12 (bookworm), but probably not
for Debian 11 (bullseye).
