Hi Jonas,

Is your work available publicly somewhere?

Yes. The matrix-sdk depends mainly on ruma which is 80% packaged in the debcargo-conf repo.

The GTK-rs update is visible here: https://salsa.debian.org/rust-team/debcargo-conf/-/merge_requests/463 and most of the *debs are here: https://salsa.debian.org/werdahias/obfuscate-wip/-/tree/debs?ref_type=heads

Stuff still missing: ashpd, oo7 and matrix-sdk. The former two are GTK related and I will package them as soon as the GTK update gets uploaded because I need them anyway. the latter needs ruma which I have constantly been working on.

comrak isn't needed anymore apparently.

wrt maintaining: I thought all GNOME circle apps should be also maintained within the GNOME team, maybe even in a separate workspace, but that is just my opinion (especially since I maintain three of those programs that way). You're free to maintain it however you see fit, I didn't want to impose.

Regarding the "credit": also maybe came off wrong. My POV: I made a list of all the fractal deps and slowly started working those off. I put in a lot of effort to get the GTK-rs update underway and the rest of the fractal stuff like ruma. I guess that resulted in me thinking "Well, I do want some of the credit for working on fractal!" And I think while that may seem selfish I still deserve that as I put in constant work towaord the goal of packaging fractal. It's not my intention to come off that way but I think you get my point.

Honestly: Feel free to do whatever you think best for debian. The GTK stack will land in trixie and then it's straightforward to finish packaging. Please don't interfere with a) the gtk stack and b) the rest of the ruma stack,

I kinda don't care about the rest. (not trying to start a side discussion which rust packaging is better; if I have an overview for both stacks that makes things easier)

Sorry for a bit of an rant and the wall of text,

I hope this clears things up.

regards,

---
