snakemake 8 splits the upstream repository into snakemake, 5 interfaces
(snakemake-interface-common, snakemake-interface-executor-plugins,
snakemake-interface-storage-plugins, snakemake-interface-report-plugins,
snakemake-interface-software-deployment-plugins) and ~30 plugins, with
separate version numbering.
https://github.com/snakemake/snakemake/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md#800-2023-12-20
According to upstream's setup.cfg, 4 of the 5 interfaces and none of the
plugins are required dependencies (but the tests use 4 plugins:
snakemake-executor-plugin-cluster-generic,
snakemake-storage-plugin-http, snakemake-storage-plugin-s3,
snakemake-storage-plugin-fs). It also adds one new external dependency
Debian doesn't currently have, python(3)-immutables.
snakemake 8 also makes some breaking API changes, described at
https://github.com/snakemake/snakemake/blob/main/docs/getting_started/migration.rst
I do not yet know whether these affect its reverse Depends/Recommends (
elpa-snakemake igdiscover kallisto pigx-rnaseq qcumber ).
I propose to package the required 4 interfaces, and probably a few
plugins but not all of them, as separate packages (i.e. *not* one
multi-upstream-tarball package -
https://wiki.debian.org/Javascript/GroupSourcesTutorial ) with the above
name format, in the Debian Med team (where snakemake currently is).
However, this is open to discussion.
