Pretty sure I'm not adding anything useful here, but I was only vaguely aware of debian packaging support. If I'm sharing builds with colleagues, I use Windows packaging, or for Ubuntu we tend to set CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX, build the 'install' target and transfer it as a tarball.
You can use CPack for that now. Something like "cpack -G TZST <builddir>". Works really well in my opinion.

But I really don't care to wait for the new committee that is pretty much exactly the same as the old committee, as far as I can tell. Anyway silence is another Wireshark project classic. At least you tried to bring something to the debate, so thank you for that, at least. It seems like the discussion is shifting away from the initial goal. I don't think aggression/criticism/sarcasm brings anything to the debate, so I would prefer to keep a constructive exchange between whoever feels involved in the subject. I personally have never used the Debian scripts, but I did not consider updating the symbols list as being a really time consuming task (and I did it numerous times in the past), so I do not have an opinion on whether the current status quo is good or bad. Balint's initial email was to collect some feedback regarding whether the scripts are being used or not. Anders provided the first feedback, let's see if others do (with the hope that they are monitoring this list...). Best regards, Pascal.

As of right now, that committee needs to be formed in January and this topic is exactly why we are going to have the committee in the first place. The process is in the final steps and should be finished by the end of the year anyway. I do not think that further discussing this issue is actually beneficial for the long term resolution of this situation. Both sides have valid arguments and good pointers and I would suggest as soon as the committee has taken up the topic we collectively create a single mission statement as suggested by Joao above. Until then, personally I will refrain from discussing this further, as I have said everything there is to say from my perspective. Do you agree Gerald? kind regards Roland Am Mi., 22. Nov. 2023 um 12:36 Uhr schrieb João Valverde <j...@v6e.pt>: Maybe you´d like to volunteer to maintain the Wireshark Debian assets? Since you've got the experience and actually use it? There are loads of lintian warnings waiting to be fixed, or there were until recently. Maybe you'd like to start there, and be more active staying on top of the all-important symbol lists. Just a thought. On 21/11/23 15:00, Anders Broman wrote:Hi, I found it useful to be able to do Debian packages easily to provide internal installation packages and even ppa for Ubuntu.

But I am for having it underneath packaging, and not in the main directory, which is what the original change was about. I respect Joao's opinion as well as yours Balint. In this case here I think, we can provide assistance for future implementors and as a starting point, by keeping the directory underneath packaging/debian. just my thoughts Roland Am Di., 21. Nov. 2023 um 15:28 Uhr schrieb Bálint Réczey <bal...@balintreczey.hu>: Hi All, João shared his opinion about the project's commitment to maintain the packaging/debian/ in the project's repository: https://gitlab.com/wireshark/wireshark/-/commit/79da670bd1b4f91eebee5c96b19eaf1f33c94777#note_1656501952 I believe the current practice is reasonable and beneficial enough for many parties to warrant the work, but I could be wrong. Probably the most important question is if there is anyone relying on the packaging scripts there. If you are, please speak up otherwise the directory may be dropped. Comments are welcome.
