Hi Damien, Jaime, Ignace, Łukasz, hi OpenNebula debian packaging team!
We are currently evaluating OpenNebula. While doing so I found and reported
some bugs, sometimes with suggestions on how to fix them.
I am currently testing 3.4.1 packages and found a missing dependency¹.
Also I am interested in OpenNebula 3.6 packages from Debian and am a bit
hesitant to use the all in one upstream packages.
Thus I'd like to help.
I have some packaging experience with creating backports² and creating some
Debian packages from scratch³, but I am not a official Debian maintainer or
developer yet. I am still learning lots of packaging stuff and did not yet
package any Ruby stuff, so I might ask stuff here ;)
Damien has welcomed my offer.
I understand that any OpenNebula 3.6 efforts likely have to go to experimental.
Thus I think a branch for experimental would be good. What do you think? Since
I am still learning git, I ask here for advice on how to best to that. I do
not like to mess up the repo ;)
For now I think I will fix that dependency and try out initial 3.6 steps
locally.
I make no promise on long term commitment - we are currently still evaluating
OpenNebula. But I like to contribute right now as I manage to take time for
it. During OpenNebula evaluation the chances for that are high ;)
