• Bug#1069242: Please provide a bookworm backport

    Package: libsequoia-octopus-librnp
    Severity: wishlist

    Dear maintainer,

    I'm very excited to see the octopus has entered unstable! This library
    is a daily driver for me on bookworm. It would be awesome if a backport
    could be made available for this release.

    Thanks!

    hi Jérôme,

    backports of rust packages at least currently are very unlikely, because
    one cannot simply backport one package plus one or two libraries maybe,
    or 5 libraries, but instead one would need to backport src:rust-sequoia-octopus-librnp
    which would need around 10 other src:rust-sequoia* packages, which
    then need a 100 (or 200?) or so other src:rust* packages backported and
    then these backports (besides being a huge effort already) need to be maintained until after one year of the release of trixie, which translates
    to more backports of these hundreds of packages plus any new dependencies...

    So right now I don't see *this* happen, sorry.

    OTOH, if the unstable libsequoia-octopus-librnp binary package works for you
    on bookworm, it's trivial to put it in a local apt repo and be done. :)
