Dominik,
While I'm not a packager, I am surely game for testing out some stuff
for you (partly to get myself familiar with the underpinnings too). I
did have a few questions your privacy-badger package tho.
1) What makes it different than per say UBlock Origin, or other
typical DNT packages?
To be honest, I haven't checked. From what I understand, it has a whitelist
and it uses heuristics for the rest. You can read more about it here:
https://www.eff.org/privacybadger . The website provides a comparison with
the other anti-tracking addons.
2) are these gonna be standalone installs or plugins?
These are system-wide Firefox addons and they appear in about:addons
tab after installation (it's best to close firefox before installing).
3) re: tng -- from a cursory look at old bz reports it looks like
its
been a troubled package -- if are willing to walk me through some of
the common use cases I'm willing to also test it for functionality
not just packaging.
I'm mainly packaging it to unbundle from GROMACS, I don't use it
stand-alone. The included testsuite passes for me and the generic
part of it is run as part of the build.
Thanks for your interest!
