Bug#908117: RFP: yq -- yq is a lightweight and portable command-line YAML processor The aim of the project is to be the jq or sed of yaml files.

Hi Dominik,

The word 'guys' is enough inclusive. See the second acceptation of https://www.wordreference.com/definition/guys. I've been using for a long time that greeting in environments of boys, girls or transexuals and I've never received a complain till reading your not fair mail answer. What is not inclusive is banning expressions. That thought manipulation leads to communism and sadly my country is at the gates of that due to general thoughts like that during years.

Related to the packaging, forget it. It is not too late, but after requesting the ITP I realized that golang 1.13 was needed along with some vendor dependencies which I'm not sure they will be available in the os when needed. (I know there were too much problematic dependencies, but my tiny mind does not remember the details now).

Sorry for the noise. I think I can continue exposing it in my ppa for now. If you give it a try to package and need some help, just let me know.

Cheers.

I also jsut wanted to start work on a yq package for Debian. I think a month
later it is ok for you to setyourself as the owner of this ITP bug and take
over the packaging.

Please, if you start working, do so in a repository on salsa.debian.org. I
will happily mentor you and if that goes well sponsor your upload.

Cheers,
Nik
