Bug#679905: RFP: cctbx -- Computational Crystallography Toolbox
Hi,
thanks for caring about Debian packaging efforts! This one is an old
one, it must have been 2012 or 2013, and salsa was called alioth :-)
What I remember was a rather inflexible packaging system, that forced us
to duplicate existing code. And an effort that, well, slowly lost steam.
Then I lost track of it due to real life commitments (my first child was
born 2014).
I also gratefully remember that Luc Bourhis was very helpful from the
upstream side. I wouldn't want to bother him again, though, until we
have something concrete to put on the table.
Best regards,
Baptiste
