Hey Fabian, Thanks for taking care of this package. > I have to admit that I'm not entirely sure about the Multi-Arch fields > that I removed.

As for the "Multi-Arch: same" issue, I also agree with your solution; it seems that removing the field is the most sensible approach here. > Other than that, I made sure that the autopkgtests pass and that the > package is mostly Lintian-clean, save for several > package-has-unnecessary-activation-of-ldconfig-trigger warnings > (which, according to the Lintian tag documentation, might be due to a > debhelper bug) and an orig-tarball-missing-upstream-signature warning > (which I would blame on git-buildpackage, see #872864). Agreed about both warnings. I have a few more things to say, but I'll send another e-mail soon. -- Sergio GPG key ID: 237A 54B1 0287 28BF 00EF 31F4 D0EB 7628 65FC 5E36 Please send encrypted e-mail if possible http://sergiodj.net/
