Inclusion of the packet nemo-extensions

Asked by Tiger Beard

I wonder if there is any reason why for Ubuntu the packages

 nemo-emblems
 nemo-terminal
 nemo-seahorse
 nemo-share

are not used.

In an similar way I would kindly ask what would be against inclusion of the package
 nemo-extensions

Rationale:
In Debian thsese packages are available and currently maintained. See https://salsa.debian.org/cinnamon-team?page=2
The packages are useful extensions and make the workflow more efficient.

The "nemo-extensions" package does contain a larget set of extensions, including older versions of the above. The value of this package is to get a good overview of available extensions with a mature functionality. If newer versions
are required the single packages could easily used to upgrade.

Sorry, I might misunderstand your answer.
I am aware of the the package in your link. Reason for my question was that the Ubuntu "nemo" package does *not* contain the Debian packages I mentioned above.

You are misinterpreting what you see on Debian.

Debian is working on packaging some nemo extensions, but that is not complete yet and there is no package available yet.
see e.g. https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=826454

I assume, whenever Debian succeeds in packaging that software and publishes a package, then Ubuntu will copy it.

Thanks for your explanation although I admit that I did not understand a lot from the history in that link. I take home that the listing of a package in the debian gitlab does not necessarily mean its part of the repro.

For completeness' sake a link to bug reports for other nemo extensions on Debian
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?include=subject%3Anemo-;package=wnpp
The bug status indicates that no official packages have been published yet.
