Request for snap maintenance #3135
Comments
Hi, yeap i don't think any of the current jq maintainers are involved with the snap packaging. Best is probably to try contact the current maintainer of it which seems to be https://snapcraft.io/publisher/mvo |
@wader I tried and no response from current snap jq maintainer. I need a validation from the official like this rclone/rclone#7221 And after team's comment i can show it to canonical and it will transfer the name to me. |
I see, that we can probably do. In these post-xz-backdoor days i guess we probably want to somehow verify the person who takes it over also? not sure how that could be done, does snap has some process/guidelines for that? |
Snap have verified accounts and star developers, but i am neither. |
Hey, sorry i have no experience with snap. Is the yaml file usually in the repo of the project or somewhere else? is there some build infra that builds things into some kind of binary package? maintained/hosted by canonical? |
Ok so best would be to add the snap file to jqlang/jq repo somewhere and then tell canonical somehow to use that file to build? i guess that would be fine. As long as things are transparent and the building/packaging happens on canonical's systems it sounds resonable and safe. What do other maintainers think? |
@wader That will be great! |
The listing at https://snapcraft.io/store?q=Jq shows seven snap packages for jq, with 5 different authors. One package is highlighted as being authored by “Canonical”. Have attempts been made to contact the Canonical author in particular? |
@pkoppstein Only this one have correct name jq. Others are jq-core18, jq-core20, jq-core22 etc.... |
Hi team,
I like jq and appreciate the project,
but the jq snap in ubuntu snap store is very outdated .
I understand there is no offical support for snap,
so i want to take over the snap jq maintenance as a community maintainer.
I'd like to know if you're open to this idea. Thanks.
