[MIR] ubuntu-ui-extras

[Andrew Hayzen]

Please consider ubuntu-ui-extras for inclusion in main.

ubuntu-terminal-app and webbrowser-app now depend on ubuntu-ui-extras to provide certain UI components which are shared, they are in main so it is required for the ubuntu-ui-extras to also be in main.

[Availability]
http://launchpad.net/ubuntu-ui-extras - qtdeclarative5-ubuntu-ui-extras0.2 is already in universe (http://packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=qtdeclarative5-ubuntu-ui-extras0.2+&searchon=names&suite=all&section=all)

[Rationale]
ubuntu-ui-extras is a new dependency of a package that we already support.
webbrowser-app and ubuntu-terminal-app want to use a common component which is in ubuntu-ui-extras.

[Security]
No CVE entries.
No Secunia history.
Written in QML and C++
Does not open any port.

[Quality assurance]
Package provides components for other Qt apps to use.
The components have been used extensively on ubuntu touch platforms.
Does not deal with exotic hardware which we cannot support.

[Dependencies]
qml-module-qtquick2
qml-module-ubuntu-components
qml-module-qtquick-window2

Which are all in main.

[Standards compliance]
Meets the FHS, Debian Policy
Standard packaging

[Maintenance]
ubuntu-ui-extras is already in universe and is maintained by the Ubuntu Phablet Team

[Background information]
Package has not been renamed recently

- Please subscribe ~ubuntu-sdk-bugs to package bugs.

- qml-module-ubuntu-test, qtdeclarative5-dev-tools, and xvfb should be added to the Build-Depends or else the test suite doesn't get run.

 - Not necessarily a blocker, but the binary package name should be qml-module-ubuntu-components-extras. This should be fixed before 18.04. (Bug 1342031)

[Launchpad Janitor (janitor)]

Thanks for the review, we have fixed the issues you have found.

- ~ubuntu-sdk-bugs is now subscribed to package bugs.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/~ubuntu-sdk-bugs/+packagebugs

- qml-module-ubuntu-test, qtdeclarative5-dev-tools and xvfb are now build-depends, and therefore the test suite now runs.

- we have noted that the package needs to be renamed to qml-module-ubuntu-components-extras and will do this in the short term future.
