lintian.debian.org: Episode IV – A New Hope

2024-12-07 - Louis-Philippe Véronneau

After weeks – dare I say months – of work, it is finally done. lintian.debian.org is back online!

Many, many thanks to everyone who worked hard to make this possible:

  • Thanks to Nicolas Peugnet, the author of lintian-ssg, who handed us this custom static site generator on a silver platter. I'm happy I didn't have to code this myself :)
  • Thanks to Otto Kekäläinen, maintainer of the lintian-ssg package in Debian, who worked in tandem with Nicolas to iron out problems.
  • Thanks to Philipp Kern, who did the work on the DSA side to put the website back online.

All in all, I did very little (mostly coordinating these fine folks) and they should get the credit for this very useful service being back.
