Bug#579593: Plans for a sssd package in Debian?

[Petter Reinholdtsen <pere@hungry.com>]

Hi.  You get this as one of the uploaders of the sssd package in
Ubuntu.

I am considering to upload the sssd package to Debian.  I've
registered WNPP request #579593 for this.  What are your thoughts
regarding a Debian upload?  How much work is it to maintain sssd?.
Should we look into some shared maintainence between Ubuntu and
Debian?  Are there others considering a Debian upload?

Looking at the package, one change is required (provide init.d script
instead of upstart job), and one is on my wishlist (support
pam-auth-update).  The rest seemed fine for Squeeze.  See
<URL: http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/initscripts-ng-devel/2010-April/000855.html >
for a draft init.d script.

Cc to btw WNPP request.

Happy hacking,
