The foundation for your business
Thanks for this notification. Instead of making 1.6.33 work, I would love to create a new package -- for 1.12.12. However, since our release tarball now includes pre-built JavaScript "assets" which are served to clients (but are static on the server), I have no idea how to do that. The build process for these JS static assets has tons of dependencies, which I definitely won't be able to package (by myself). I also don't have a clue where to start: I've asked about this with respect to Debian policy, but none of the attendees of eg the #debian-mentors IRC channnel knew how to help. I'm at a loss and think I can't update the package if the situation remains the same... Regards, Erik.
