Hi,

All this is currently implemented in GNU make syntax, so this is doable to move to debhelper and not introduce some helper script. I'll try to
come up with something. However, I still think that the handling of the plugin build configuration would be easier to maintain with a more capable language than GNU make.

The alternative you didn't list which I prefer is to branch out to interpreter-specific source packages depending on uwsgi-source and using
dh helpers tailored for each interpreter - same as has been done already
for php and a few others.

Now I see what you mean.

Can you confirm the list of new src packages you think about?
I can think of the following and all helper script to generate binNMUs
when uwsgi-abi changes.

src:uwsgi-libapache2-mods
building libapache2-mod-ruwsgi
building libapache2-mod-ruwsgi

src:uwsgi-plugin-python3
building uwsgi-plugin-python3
building python3-uwsgidecorators
building uwsgi-plugin-asyncio-python3
building uwsgi-plugin-gevent-python3
building uwsgi-plugin-greenlet-python3
building uwsgi-plugin-tornado-python3

src:uwsgi-plugin-ruby
building uwsgi-plugin-fiber
building uwsgi-plugin-rack
building uwsgi-plugin-rbthreads

src:uwsgi-plugin-gccgo

src:uwsgi-plugin-glusterfs

src:uwsgi-plugin-openjdk
building uwsgi-plugin-jvm
building uwsgi-plugin-jwsgi
building uwsgi-plugin-ring
building uwsgi-plugin-servlet

src:uwsgi-plugin-lua51

src:uwsgi-plugin-mono

src:uwsgi-plugin-psgi

src:uwsgi-plugin-rados

Please confirm or comment, and I'll give it a go for python. Once all done, this should make the move the dh easy with a static list of plugins to build.

Thanks,

Alex

Can you confirm the list of new src packages you think about?

I see no need for doing them all at once, and worry that it needlessly complicates oversight - similar to your transition draft.

src:uwsgi-plugin-python3
building uwsgi-plugin-python3
building python3-uwsgidecorators
building uwsgi-plugin-asyncio-python3
building uwsgi-plugin-gevent-python3
building uwsgi-plugin-greenlet-python3
building uwsgi-plugin-tornado-python3

[...]

Please confirm or comment, and I'll give it a go for python.

The above looks good. Please create that, and test (e.g. with debdiff)
that it produces same binary packages as now generated with src:uwsgi
we can release that. No need to touch src:uwsgi at all for this work.

Ideally, the package should be done in as mainstream packaging style as possible, and we might consider offering its continued mainteance to the
Python team. If something in its packaging is sticking out and pose a
risk that the Python team will find it scary to adopt (regardless if
they in fact adopt it or if we offer it for adoption at all - merely the principle of being totally streamlined or not) then we might consider
extending our dh_uwsgi to handle any warts there.

Then, when we are happy about the new addon package, we release it and
have it approved by ftpmasters. We can then simplify src:uwsgi to no
longer generate those same binary packages, and then repeat the cycle
for each of the other involved libraries.

...or please do tell, if you think I am missing something and there is
some benefit in doing more at once.

Independently from the above work we can look at other atomic changes to simplify packaging, where one very narrow change (especially when done
*after* the above) is letting go of cdbs. You can see my work on
"atomifying" your draft in branch wip/simplify - it it still both
unfinished and untested, but gives an idea of the level of atomicity
that I find comfortable for understanding what is going on.
