Package: wnpp
Owner: "M.Raps" <m.r...@rapsplace.de>
Severity: wishlist
* Package name : imapsync
Version 1.882
Upstream Author : Gilles Lamiral <gil...@lamiral.info>
* URL : https://github.com/imapsync/imapsync
* License : NLPL
Programming Lang: Perl
Description : Email IMAP tool for syncing, copying and migrating
email mailboxes between two imap servers, one way, and without
duplicates.
i missing this master piece of software in debian, since i started my
admin career.
a couple years ago, the upstream Author played with licensing and
payment around but now its free again.
https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2018/11/msg00849.html
i already migrated tons of mails with it and i think a lot of mailadmins
would benefit from it to see this package back in debian.

Hey,
I'm not working on imapsync right now.
To be honest, I'm using mbsync myself right now and completely
satisfied with it.
Feel free to package imapsync and push it to Debian, I'm as an old
maintainer not interested in this right now, because I don't have the
free time. Sorry about this and wish you the best of luck!
Cheers,
Gergely

Yes. The package does not seem to be on mentors.d.n yet, right?

Also, in case you are on IRC, could you join OFTC/#debian-mentors? This
would make coordination work easier than using mail and/or the BTS.

Hello,
Is there someone getting this beautiful software to Debian ?
If not, I volunteer to contribute.
Some more context on my part:
We use IMAPSync at work and I have built [1] a repo with it last year.
Now that Debian 12 is out, it has been decided that it was not worth
maintaining a server only for this package, so we will remove such
server. :'-(
(For now it is available in http://deb.probesys.com ; beware: no SSL !)
[1] With code available in salsa, build was pretty straightforward:
mkdir imapsync-build && cd imapsync-build
gbp clone https://salsa.debian.org/RAPS/imapsync.git
cd imapsync
git branch upstream
gbp import-orig
https://imapsync.lamiral.info/dist/old_releases/1.945/imapsync-1.945.tgz
[version to indicate: 1.945+dfsg1 ]
gbp pq import
gbp buildpackage
Regards,

Hello,
(I switched to personnal email as I am doing this in my "personnal time"
and have no official agreement from my company for now.)
It appeared to me that a couple of years later my notes on how to build
the package were not accurate anymore ! (sorry for my last post.)
After a quick chat in OFTC/#debian-mentors channel, I went on packaging
imapsync.
So I (tried to) keep up good work done by Markus Raps on salsa and here
is how.
For now, I focus on having only imapsync perl script[1] and imapsync man
page[2] in debian package.
(I wish to have some upstream documentation too, but I plan to add it
once I get more familiar with debian packaging.)
Here are the steps followed and how to build package at the bottom of
this message:
0. on salsa.debian.net cloned Markus repo to mine
1. change debian/watch to fix new URL for upstream tags
2. change Makefile and imapsync files to use the ones from
imapsync v1.945
3. launch command "gbp pq import"
(it creates and checks out branch patch-queue/master)
4. Use attached file as ~/.gbp.conf (note filter in import-orig section)
5. Download new upstream with command "gbp import-orig --uscan
--upstream-version=2.229 --pristine-tar" (this creates some commits,
downloads on ./../ directory and a new pristine-tar branch (I am not
sure about this branch) )
6. Rebase existing debian patch (error → skip its rebase)
7. Create equivalent patches for version 2.229
8. Launch "gbp pq export --commit" (this checkout master branch)
9. make some changes and commits to debian files
(new dependency, unfollow debian/files, maintainer and salsa)
9. Checkout Makefile and imapsync from patch-queue/master branch (why??)
10. Build package with:
gbp buildpackage
This built a package in ./../
Now, thing is I could not rebuild package with "gbp buildpackage"
command (why?).
I had to push pristine-tar branch to be able to build package "from
scratch" (why?).
It is now (as in commit 1e0d6bd39f9a2d7deb5cb0edb6246b57fa26e9a6)
possible to build package "from scratch" with following steps:
0. git clone https://salsa.debian.org/fernando-guest/imapsync.git
1. cd imapsync && git checkout pristine-tar && git checkout master
(why?)
2. gbp buildpackage
And the magic happens ! \o/ :tada:
[1] https://github.com/imapsync/imapsync/blob/master/imapsync
[2] Built launching pod2man on imapsync perl script.
Hope this helps
Regards
Fernando
