Bug#986227: RFP: paperless-ngx -- scan, index and archive all your physical documents

[Mechtilde <ooo@mechtilde.de>]

Hello Michael,

I did a new install of paperless.ngx.

Yes the tar-ball is a pre-compiled version. It contains many files with 
minimized JavaScript.

So I think to build the whole package you have to compile the 
Java-script, too.

so I can't build it as a Debian package.

Regards

Mechtilde
