Bug Description
Availability: builds on all architectures
Rationale:
- Used by systemd's remote journal support; we'd like to enable this as it provides nice and secure (over SSL) logging for devices without much space, or writable root etc. Users are asking for it (bug 1480952) and it's also a nice feature for snappy.
- Enablement done in Debian: http://
Security: two issues in the past (http://
QA/maintenance:
- Just a library, no user interface; no debconf,
- No serious, and very few bug reports in Debian/Ubuntu
- Standard dh7/dh_install packaging, no oddities
- Adequate package maintenance in Debian, no Ubuntu delta planned
- Adequate upstream maintenance: Search for "microhttp" on https:/
- Package has watch file
- /!\ Package has some automatic tests, and some example C programs for manual testing; not enabled during package build
Dependencies: all build/binary deps already in main
Note that at least for now we don't necessarily need to put the new systemd-
