* Package name : arduino-package Version : 1.0 Upstream Author : Philipp Meisberger <team@pm-codeworks.de> * URL : https://github.com/philippmeisberger/arduino-package * License : D-FSL Programming Lang: Shell Description : Utility for creating Arduino Debian packages This package provides the capability to build a Debian package from an Arduino binary distribution by running make-arduinopkg <Arduino archive file>. Download the archive file from https://www.arduino.cc This package is a good addition to Debian since there seems no such application. I often use it. The package is no dependency for other packages. I am looking for a sponsor. Regards, Philipp Meisberger

Hello Carsten, as I see the arduino-builder is for a completely different task. arduino-package is for downloading Arduino IDE as ZIP file and automatically building a Debian package (very similar to java-package). I try to contact the maintainers of arduino-builder. Regards, Philipp Am 25.02.19 um 11:59 schrieb Carsten Schoenert:

Hello Phillip, For what it is worth, I was able to clone from your git repo, build the application, and create a .deb for Arduino IDE 1.8.8 without issue. Is there any chance that you could import that repo into salsa.debian.org so that the folks at https://salsa.debian.org/electronics-team/arduino can take a look? Best regards, Kashif https://github.com/philippmeisberger/arduino-package
Hello Kashif, sure! I pushed it on salsa: https://salsa.debian.org/pm-codeworks-guest/arduino-package Best regards, Philipp Am 03.03.19 um 05:39 schrieb Kashif Shah:
Hi all, @Carsten, as was pointed out `arduino-builder` and this package are completely different, though the name of course might be misleading. @Philipp, I looked at your script. It effectively builds a '.deb' file which can be installed. However you are not building the Arduino IDE, your package simply contains the very binaries provided by upstream. That is not the way Debian works. The binaries shipped in a Debian package must be built from source. We must make sure the building is reproducible and achievable on all supported architectures. Therefore this software somehow promotes practices that I'd say are against the DFSG. Regards,
Hi, it is correct that the package just builds a .deb file which contains full functional Arduino IDE. Simple and clean. What about the java-package and DFSG? It is very similar to my package and also does not build a .deb from source but is contained in Debian. Regards, Philipp Am 03.03.19 um 13:07 schrieb Rock Storm:
Hello Philipp, Am 03.03.19 um 16:55 schrieb Philipp Meisberger: maybe simple, but definitely not clean from a point of view of the DFSG! And that's what Rock Storm has mentioned. All packages that are not fulfilling the DFSG aren't Debian or can't be Debian and need to go to non-free. But as it's possible to package the arduino IDE for main it would be confusing for user to also find a arduino package in the non-free sections. Please have a look at the existing package arduino! One of the most important files within the Debian packaging is the copyright file. https://salsa.debian.org/electronics-team/arduino/arduino/blob/master/debian/copyright Please note the Files-Excluded field here, it is listing all the files that are excluded so the package is DFSG clean. Next there is a file README.source. https://salsa.debian.org/electronics-team/arduino/arduino/blob/master/debian/README.source It mostly describes what steps are needed to import a new source tarball and how to handle the packaging if needed. Packaging the arduino IDE isn't a nice package where new contributors should start with (because of this massive DFSG stuff). Geert (CCd) was one of the latest people who have worked on arduino so he could probably say something about the current state of the arduino package. I'm not familiar enough to give more advises regarding updating the arduino package, I guess Geert can jump in. But I hardly won't see a non-free arduino IDE package in Debian or a helper package in contrib.

It's in the contrib distribution, which is a set of packages provided alongside Debian for working with non-free software. This sort of upstream repackager, if it itself is released under a free software license, is in general acceptable for contrib if someone is willing to sponsor it. (I haven't looked at the details of this specific package.)
