get GlobaLeaks into official Debian repositories

Open adrelanos opened this issue 10 years ago • 7 comments

For inclusion of GlobaLeaks into Whonix (https://www.whonix.org), it would help a lot of GlobaLeaks was properly maintained in Debian. Installation without third party sources would then be much simpler.

Please consider:

  • [ ] posting a Debian request for packaging (RFP) (https://wiki.debian.org/RFP)
  • [ ] asking if someone is interested on https://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-anonymity-tools
  • [ ] maintaining GlobaLeaks in Debian

Labeled D1.5 for OTF's release

Actually GlobaLeaks is fully deb packaged with the dependency set of Ubuntu 16.04 .

However, due to our heavy GLClient javascript dependencies, it could even be unlikely that with the actual rules we may ever be able to get into the official debian repositories, because we would need to package maybe some 30-40 JS libraries actually NPM into DEB, becoming maintainer of those.

Would the Ubuntu 16.04 full deb be whoonix compatible?

Does that package work on Debian? If so, there is a very high chance it works in Whonix out of the box as well.

@adrelanos the package works perfectly on Ubuntu 16.04 as a target for tested full deb dependencies

@adrelanos hello, the new globaleaks release install with a new design that may fit easily whoonix one, with Tor being configured trough Tor Control Port and with the inbound connection for Tor coming into GlobaLeaks trough a dedicated port (8083) so that GlobaLeaks knows that are from Tor and not HTTPS. Do you envision easier possibilities for integration into whoonix? Are you coming to Valencia for OTF gathering, as we may do a few hours hackaton together in trying to achieve that outcome?
