Bug#1019279: RFP: libnet-libidn2-perl -- Perl bindings for GNU libidn2



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
X-Debbugs-CC: Debian Perl Group <pkg-perl-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org>

* Package name    : libnet-libidn2-perl
  Version         : 1.01
  Upstream Author : Thomas Jacob
* URL or Web page : https://metacpan.org/release/Net-LibIDN2
* License         : Artistic or GPL-1+
  Description     : Perl bindings for GNU libidn2

Net::LibIDN2 provides Perl bindings for GNU libidn2, a C library for handling internationalized domain names according to IDNA 2008, Punycode and Unicode TR46. It closely follows the original C API of that library.


Dear developers,

there are Perl modules in Debian packages that already support Net::LibIDN2 (libnet-dns-perl for instance). As libidn2 implements the revised algorithm for internationalized domain names in contrast to its predecessor libidn, it would make sense to also have libnet-libidn2-perl as a Debian package next to libnet-libidn-perl.

Thank you in advance!

Best regards,

Thomas Uhle
