Package: laidout
Version: git (from 'master' branch)
REQUEST: Laidout (Testing)
Re: REQUEST: Laidout (Testing)
That looks to be pretty easy, considering that the developer kindly provides a (deb)ian folder for easy packaging.
Re: REQUEST: Laidout (Testing)
Well...not that easy. The control file in the debian folder was missing most of the build-depends, the README provided most of the missing ones except libgegl-dev >= 0.3, and after adding those, the builds still failed with compiler errors like
on both gcc-4.9 and gcc-6. Though the gcc-6 ld linker errors out with
, and I see from the home page that the source builds and installs that, so it just needs some override that tells the system where that library is installed...

Re: REQUEST: Laidout (Testing)
I got it to build on a 64-bit bare metal install instead of using pbuilder, but at least the pbuilder attempts showed all the missing build-deps. Now trying 32-bit in Virtual Box.

Laidout 0.0.96.4 should be available in the test repo shortly.
