Hi I am new to python debian packaging, and I'm looking for guidance and review my packaging. I'm happy to team-maintain these packages if someone can add me to the salsa group.
Right now I am working on python-sigstore and my packaging is here: https://salsa.debian.org/jas/sigstore-python/ as you can see in the pipeline, it currently fails due to lacking tuf: https://salsa.debian.org/jas/sigstore-python/-/jobs/6706412 It seems python-tuf has an old ITP/RFS report here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=934151 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=931178 I started from scratch on python-tuf with the latest upstream version, instead of trying to understand the old packaging work that I couldn't get to work. Upstream evolved a lot. My packaging is here: https://salsa.debian.org/jas/python-tuf/ The self-tests tries seems to open some files which fails and I suspect it is because srcdir != builddir reasons, or something similar, see errors here: https://salsa.debian.org/jas/python-tuf/-/jobs/6707693 ==================================== ERRORS ==================================== ______________ ERROR collecting tests/test_metadata_generation.py ______________ tests/test_metadata_generation.py:10: in <module> from tests.generated_data.generate_md import generate_all_files tests/generated_data/generate_md.py:60: in <module> os.mkdir(OUT_DIR) E FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'generated_data/ed25519_metadata' How is this (seamingly common) problem solved normally? Do we copy test data files into the build directory somehow? Do we include them in the package? Do we patch hard-coded paths like this to make it work? If anyone can review my python-tuf and python-sigstore packages, that would be appreciated -- all nit-picks and style advice is most recommended, as I have not worked on python packaging before. Don't assume I understand any of the debian/* content so feel free to question some decision. If you want to build python-tuf locally, it depends on a more recent version of python3-securesystemslib and you can find it here: https://salsa.debian.org/jas/securesystemslib/ https://salsa.debian.org/jas/securesystemslib/-/pipelines/774721 https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1089125 Thanks, /Simon
