API package creation from the stage
Metadata
Current evaluation
2016 feature proposal to add a snapcraft 'development' plugin that tars up the stage with filtered content, creating an API/developer package (headers/libs) for runtime snaps like ubuntu-qt-runtime. No labels, comments, or activity for about 10 years.
Suggested action: close stale
Reason: The issue is 3589 days old with 0 comments, no labels, and no maintainer engagement, and its motivating context is obsolete: it targets the 2016-era ubuntu-qt-runtime/content-interface workflow and proposes a plugin design that predates the modern snapcraft parts architecture, with no such 'development' plugin ever implemented. Inactivity alone isn't the basis — the specific proposal and its example project no longer map to the current project.
