Hello,
I implemented an harvester for Debian packages. This was quite complicated because there is no java implementation of APT, and no Rest Json API directly on top of the Debian repositories. The workaround I've found is to use Ubuntu's Launchpad API. This can clearly be improved because in this way, I do not consider the version at all, nor even the distribution, but it is then possible to obtain information on the project concerned, as well as its license.
Note that I also had to update the PyYAML dependency which was outdated, and blocked the build of the Docker image
Tell me what you think.
Best regards
