Hi team! I've been putting off giving an update for worry of not giving a sufficiently good/long update, so I'll just give you a quick one to keep the team informed.
- I started work on Clojure 1.9, which required a 1.9 alpha to be packaged in order to build all of 1.9. All of the dependencies for building 1.9 have now been accepted into the archive. I reached out to Emmanuel for help with the 1.9 build, as I ran into some ant classpath issues. - Last you heard from me, Leiningen had been uploaded and accepted. But Leiningen doesn't build with Clojure 1.9, so uploading the 1.9 alpha caused it to FTBFS. I then uploaded Clojure 1.8 (with the help of rlb) to fix this, but now I need to go back and add libclojure1.8-java as an alternate dependency for all of lein's Clojure build deps. Giant headache. That work is being tracked here: https://salsa.debian.org/clojure-team/leiningen-clojure/issues/1 And the FTBFS bug report is here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=889533 - I gave a talk at ClojureSYNC about Debian and some of my work on the Clojure team. No video yet, but the talk page is here: https://clojuresync.com/elana-hashman/ I am trying to get all of this done before the Ubuntu 18.04 LTS feature freeze on March 1st, in the stated order (as the Leiningen work is technically a giant mess of bug fixes). If you want to help out, feel free to submit PRs! All of our repos should now be on salsa. Phil Hagelberg submitted the first PR to the clojure-team and I'm told it was painless and quite a pleasant contribution experience. - e
