Hey,
This has for long been my default image viewer and I missed it. I took
the debian directory from 23.04.2 source package copied it to 24.08.1 uptsream tar ball and changed only kf5 to kf6 in debian/rules (and the changelog) to generate the correct package version number).
Made a "fakeroot make -f debian/rules binary" and after fixing the
missing -dev packages, it did build and works.
As I'm not a dev, if someone can officially package it
Well you managed to update the package, so don't be shy, you could help in out team - getting the new versions to users faster!
We also do not the proper packaging differently ;)
Sure we have some tools that help us - but in principal it is the same.
Okay there are some smaller bits you would have to learn:
The most importnat part - how to commit these changes to git, so we can work together.
You can see what Aurélien Couderc did for the new version.
https://salsa.debian.org/qt-kde-team/kde/gwenview/-/commits/debian/ experimental?ref_type=heads
Especially the first commits are the same you did:
"New upstream release (24.08.1)." - add /update the changelog entry
"Update build-deps and deps with the info from cmake." - modify the build dependencies ( also known as the -dev packages) so that the version builds
Most of the packaging work is very simple and needs to be done to all packages. And it would also help for us, if those easy steps were taken by more people.
If you want to learn more feel free to ask.
Regards,
hefee
