[Bug 403349] Re: calendarserver has dependency on non-existent python-xml package in karmic

[PeterNSteinmetz]

It looks like version 2.3 will require a fair number of changes to the
debian and ubuntu packaging, from what I can see.

Spent a fair amount of time working with 1.4 from
http://trac.calendarserver.org/browser/CalendarServer/tags/release/CalendarServer-1.4

which was released at basically the same time as 2.3, that is, 3 months
ago.

I'm a newbie at this packaging business, so am sure it is not quite
right yet.

I took the source for 1.4 and copied in the debian subdirectory from the
prior ubuntu package. Needed to make a number of changes to some patch
files and the control file.

Have been able to build the source package, build the package, and
install on my system (though with a syntax warning in one module that
may indicate another patch that needs changing).

I'm finished with this for the weekend, so thought I would forward along
my source directory and orig.tar.gz tarball that I was using in
construction.

I'm assuming that really the way this should work is either for the
debian upstream to be fixed, or for the source to be retrieved via the
svn from macports and then a debian subdirectory added, but I'm
definitely not sure on that.

Perhaps others can carry on with the packaging and testing from here?

thanks,
Peter
