It seems that if I want to have a good source package, I need 5 repos :
- Mailman
- HyperKitty
- Postorius
- HyperKitty - MailMan Plugin
- MailmanClient
In the spirit of the refactoring, I would say mailman-core (mailman + mailmanclient), hyperkitty, and postorious should be three separate packages in Debian. Exactly which repos are needed, I'm not sure.
Mailman3 (or mailman-suite) would be a trivial package that depends on all of the above.
My first question is "Am I right?". And the second one is whould I consider looking into mailman-suite-doc and also have it in the source package?
No, Debian breaks out doc packages anyway. I think as long as upstream is a separate repo, you may as well just have a separate source package for mailman-suite-doc, too.
On another way, I also see that there is a standalone postorius repo and also some django project files for HyperKitty in another one. I have the impression it is more designed for people to work on as standalone - forkable projects for other features, and so I wouldn't need them in a Debian package.
No, IIRC these are variants which don't need a separate webserver such as Apache (convenient for testing), but they're still closely tied to mailman core and mailmanclient.
