Dear Bastian, Maintainers,
Thank you again for the feedback on the RFS for sys-scan-graph (Bug
#1118183).
I have addressed the points previously raised:
1. **Separate Packaging Repository:** The Debian packaging files have been
moved out of the upstream source repository and are now maintained
separately here:
* `https://github.com/J-mazz/sys-scan-debian_package`
<https://github.com/J-mazz/sys-scan-debian_package>
2. **Changelog:** The `debian/changelog` file has been corrected to
contain only the entry for the initial release (`6.0.0-1`), and it now
references the ITP bug #1118183.
For further context on the package:
* **Upstream Source Repository:** The main C++ scanner and Python agent
source code resides at:
* `https://github.com/J-mazz/sys-scan-graph`
<https://github.com/J-mazz/sys-scan-graph>
* **PyPI Package:** The Python intelligence layer component is also
available on PyPI under the name `sys-scan-agent`. The Debian package will
ensure correct integration and dependency handling within the Debian
ecosystem.
* **User Interface:** The primary user interface is command-line based. The
Python intelligence layer can generate comprehensive, self-contained HTML
reports for visualizing scan results and analysis. There is also a separate
GTKmm-based graphical UI (`sys-scan-ui`) in development:
* `https://github.com/J-mazz/sys-scan-ui`
<https://github.com/J-mazz/sys-scan-ui>
* This UI interacts with the `sys-scan-agent` via IPC (multiprocessing
queues) and allows users to view findings and provide feedback.
* **Packaging Plan:** To keep the core `sys-scan-graph` package focused
and lightweight, the plan is to package `sys-scan-ui` separately *after*
the core package has been accepted into Debian. This current RFS pertains
only to the core `sys-scan-graph` (CLI scanner and Python agent).
I believe this addresses the request for more information. Please let me
know if any further details or changes are required.
Regards,
Joseph Mazzini
