please review and sponsor all-in-one-sidebar (updated)

my updated packaging can be found at lp:~kvilhaugsvik/firefox-extensions/all-in-one-sidebar.ubuntu

Hello,

Following the link in copyright file, I see that the source is obtained as xpi file. You could use med-xpi-unpack and med-xpi-pack scripts provided by mozilla-devscripts package. It would require a slight change to debian/rules.

First you prepare the source tree using med-xpi-unpack, by calling it with something like this:

~$ med-xpi-unpack aios.xpi aios

Previous command assumes that the name of xpi file is "aios.xpi", and that it's located in your home dir. That will unpack the contents of xpi file to aios directory. Then copy over your debian/ directory to it. Replace the MOZ_XPI_BUILD_COMMAND to

med-xpi-pack . aios.xpi

Add mozilla-devscripts package to the list of build-dependencies in debian/control. Try to build the package, everything should work. Thank you for your contribution.

Thank you. New branch at lp:~kvilhaugsvik/firefox-extensions/all-in-one-sidebar.ubuntu.try2

Looks good to me. Could you just add (LP: #297708) to the "new upstream" item in the changelog? I think it's ready for the archive after that.

Thanks.

Done. Thank you for your feedback!

Just one more thing: What do I do now? Should I just wait or should I do something (for example subscribe Universe Sponsors)? I didn't see anything on the wiki about subscribing them so I guessed the Mozilla team would sponsor the package and merge it into their tree if ready, but if I have missed a part of the development process when it comes to Firefox extensions maintained in Bazaar would be nice to know what I should do next.

The process should be the same as for the other uploads. Subscribe
u-u-s and someone should upload it. I think the process doesn't
require a debdiff, as it's maintained in a bzr branch and afaik MOTU
should handle that too. It has an ack from Mozilla Extensions team.
