Hello,

I'm deeply concerned that the "surface area" of Debian packaging tools is too large already for new folk, and adding something like gwh into the archive makes that problem worse.

I would really like to see an effort to improve gbp itself directly at least first. Have you tried to do that?

I try to describe, how packaging with gbp (git-buildpackage) can work, including the workflow and why.

It should help to unterstand the process of packaging.

Help is appreciated

From the README, I see

I'm still in the process of turning these from a bunch of files in my ~/bin and ~/.config and so on into something that can be of use to more people. This warning will disappear once I'm confident most of the rough edges have been smoothed out.

IMHO, putting this in the archive is premature.

I think most feedback on ITPs (like this) just goes into the void. Can I be explicit in asking you Roland, to withdraw this ITP, at least until you have exhausted options for improving gbp itself?
