Bug#887394: Packaging Veyon (was: Re: Accepted italc 1:3.0.3+dfsg1-2 (source) into unstable)
Hi Tobias,
a quick top posted mail... Can you also describe the dependency tree?
Master needs service and libveyon-core.
Configurator? Would it work standalone?
Master should probably recommend configurator.
Service needs Auth-Helper and Worker (they should be in the same package... IMHO).
veyon-ctl is useful for whom? For the PC running the Master application? Or is it more useful on the PCs running the Service?
And the Plugins? Needed on Master or on client systems running the Service?
Thanks, Mike
