Re: [MoM] Request to contribute to DebianMed and be part of MoM



Hi Shayan,

[I'm writing only to the list since I understood you are subscribed and
 list policy on Debian lists is usually not to CC the original poster.
 I personally don't mind much but in case you might dive into other Debian
 lists some people will respond less friendly - so just teaching you the
 expected behaviour. ;-) ]

This does various detection and assembly of DNA insertion variants which fits in to the life science criteria of things. I have read through the licensing file and briefly through some src files. I am also unable to find any packaged form of this project, nor does this seem to exist on salsa.debian.org. Would you say this is feasible to package? 

This seems to be a good catch!  I see stumbling stones due to the fact
that a specific gatb-core commit is referenced but most probably this is
interesting enough to be a good educational example.

I just considered it a good idea to write down the what we do now to
start with packaging on the MoM page.  May be this is not the best
place - but since its actually useful for MoM you can now find a new
section on the Wiki page:

   https://wiki.debian.org/DebianMed/MoM#Quickstart_with_Debian_Med_package_template

I also added you to the table of MoM students.

Please try to follow the quickstart advise and make sure you ask any
question about things that might be unclear here.  The text is not
tested in practice yet - so assume misleading advise and in general
always asume that your mentors might make mistakes.  Just be verbose
about any issue you might see.

> Many thanks for your time,

You are welcome and good luck with your first steps

      Andreas.
