Bug#1062808: RFP: python-pyhanko -- Sign and stamp PDF files



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Control: block -1 by 1062706

* Package name    : python-pyhanko
* URL             : https://github.com/MatthiasValvekens/pyHanko
* License         : Expat
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description     : Validates X.509 certificates and paths

The pyHanko library roughly consists of the following components.

* The pyhanko.pdf_utils package, which is essentially a (gutted and heavily modified) fork of PyPDF2, with various additions to support the kind of low-level operations that pyHanko needs to support its various signing and validation workflows.

* The pyhanko.sign package, which implements the general signature API supplied by pyHanko.

* The pyhanko.stamp module, which implements the signature appearance rendering & stamping functionality.

* The pyhanko.keys module with utilities to handle key and certificate loading.

* Support subpackages to handle CLI and configuration: pyhanko.config and pyhanko.cli. These mostly consist of very thin wrappers around library functionality, and shouldn’t really be considered public API, except for the parts used in the plugin system.

The library is needed for xhtml2pdf to update to a newer version.
