Working on 'leancrypto' packaging (which now build! see salsa pipeline below) made me consider life choices wrt debian/copyright.
For several of my packages, I use 'lrc' to audit that debian/copyright file matches what 'licensecheck' thinks the license of files are. But what is the best tool to GENERATE a debian/copyright in a package with 1500+ files with different copyright and license information? I have heard about 'clscan' but using it does not seem straightforward to use, or at least I didn't understand how to use it. Are there any gentle introductions to it? I expect a tool to be able to either CREATE a template debian/copyright or UPDATE an existing debian/copyright (made from an earlier template) by searching through the content of a directory. A tool like that doesn't feel like rocket science these days. Could someone summarize the alternatives and share their experience with some of them? /Simon Simon Josefsson <si...@josefsson.org> writes: > Packaging is materializing here: > > https://salsa.debian.org/debian/leancrypto/ > > Automating debian/copyright generation somehow would help. /Simon
