I noticed that the Fedora package specified a fairly high version number for their equivalent of node-typescript. Thank you for confirming. Could you ask the Debian node-typescript maintainers if they could upload a newer version to Experimental? Probably the most difficult part of packaging Decibels will be how to handle the vendored gi-types. Based on our experience with Rust, we may need to package the generator. Either the archived one that Decibels is currently using https://github.com/gjsify/gi.ts or the new one that Decibels isn't using yet https://github.com/gjsify/ts-for-gir The switch is mentioned at https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/decibels/-/merge_requests/128 This means that the first GNOME Typescript app will be the most difficult to package. After that, the others should be much easier. Figuring out how to handle the generator and its output is the part that I expect to take a long time. Thank you, Jeremy Bícha
