Subject: Having trouble packaging 'tidy'
Date: Wed, 08 Oct 2014 21:47:23 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87iojuc8us.fsf@izanagi.i-did-not-set--mail-host-address--so-tickle-me> (raw)
Tidy is an application/library for fixing problems with HTML markup that
is depended on by a number of other projects. However, tidy hasn't been
updated since about 2009 and does not provide release tarballs. There's
only a CVS repo, and it seems impossible to download a tarball snapshot
of a specific revision.
Their homepage is here: http://tidy.sourceforge.net/
Debian hosts a tarball for their source package, but we probably don't
want to rely on that.
I'm not sure how to proceed. Thoughts?
