Prepare package for new upstream 2.3.1

Hi,

Sorry to bug you about that, but I'm not able to extract the attach tar.gz file (invalid tarball). Could you please reattach it in text format?

Thanks,
Fabrice

I just downloaded the patch from here, and it extracts fine using: tar zxf monajat_2.3.1-0ubuntu1.debian.tar.gz

Btw, I downloaded using elinks.

Hi,

It seems some bad mirror was preventing the download of your file from some locations.

One question about the new packages: does it really make sense to create a dedicated python-monajat package, separated from the data one? could it be a monajat-common package, with both data and python packages? According to the descriptions, it seems python-monajat is an internal python library, and not really prepared to be exposed outside.

Also, this would make easier the dependencies:
- one common package,
- one package for the screenlet,
- one package for the transition
- one package for the cli (mod one)
- one package for the applet

Anyway, as some files are changing from old monajat package to new monajat-applet one, you should use conflict/replace to avoid this error when installing the new version:
Unpacking monajat-applet (from monajat-applet_2.3.1-0ubuntu1_all.deb) ...
dpkg: error processing monajat-applet_2.3.1-0ubuntu1_all.deb (--install):
 trying to overwrite '/usr/share/applications/monajat.desktop', which is also in package monajat 0:1.2-0ubuntu1

Thanks,
Fabrice

I checked with upstream, and he told me that there is a plasma widget
(written in C) that would only require monajat-data. So probably it is
better to keep monajat-data & python-monajat separate.

Fixed that in the attached debian diff.
