Packaging for a distribution means taking sources from upstream projects, applying fixes and modifications, adding some configuration and then build the result by calling some commands. RPM formalized the process following a "pristine sources" model. The approach is basically to take the unmodified sources as released by upstream and store required changes in the form of patches as well as a build description next to them. Times have changed. The distributed version control system git dominates the free software world. Juggling tarballs and manually applying patches is no longer a natural workflow. Packager life could be much easier if downstream changes could be applied by means of git too, skipping tarballs. This talks presents a way how to apply the pristine source idea to a git based world, without history rewriting in the distro repo.

In einer riesigen Villa hoch oben über der Stadt lebt der berühmte Erfinder Zangemann. Erwachsene wie Kinder lieben seine Erfindungen und wollen sie unbedingt haben. Doch dann geschieht etwas: Zangemann kommt in die Stadt, um seine Erfindungen wieder einmal aus der Nähe zu betrachten und – RUMMS! – ein Kind fährt ihm mit seinem Skateboard gegen das Schienbein. Wutentbrannt trifft der Erfinder eine Entscheidung und dann passieren merkwürdige Dinge ... Aber das kluge Mädchen Ada durchschaut, was vor sich geht. Gemeinsam mit ihren Freund:innen schmiedet sie einen Plan. Lesung des Buches mit wunderschönen Illustrationen von Sandra Brandstätter (u.a. Character-Designerin für die Serie »Trudes Tier«, Sendung mit der Maus). Das Buch ist ein modernes Märchen, das die Freude am Tüfteln vermittelt und zum selbstbestimmten Umgang mit Software aufruft: für Kinder ab 6 Jahren. Eine charmante Geschichte, die auch Erwachsenen Spaß macht. about this event: https://cfp.winterkongress.ch/wk22/talk/VAVEX8/
