Bard relies on iniparser which doesn't appear to be packaged for debian

In order to have a serviceabe machine I've done some semi-horrid stuff.

I just compiled and built iniparser and stuck libiniparser.so.0 in /usr/lib with no fucks given about package management, and copied the iniparser.h and dictionary.h headers to the bard directory, then built bard locally. To be honest libiniparser should probably be statically linked to bard anyway. iniparser doesn't seem to be set up for distro packaging anyway.

I also needed lemonbar-xft aka https://github.com/krypt-n/bar rather than the packaged lemonbar.

In order to build a package I'll need to remindmyself of the makedepends.

I can't figure out the dpkg log. A lot of stuff seems to be out of order. Here's a snippet.

I done gave up on dpkg and bard/lemonbar/bspwm and reverted back to awesomewm.
