Source: libvc Version: 012-5 Severity: important Dear Maintainer,
This package now use the '3.0 (quilt)' modern archive format; where the patching at build time is done by dpkg itself. Please drop the now-extraneous build-pendency on quilt. Please also drop the debian/README.source file from 2009. I see you were an early adopter back then; but nowadays what this README states should be the one natural & obvious way to manage patches. https://trends.debian.net/#source-formats Greetings Alexandre /tmp/libvc-012$ grep quilt -r debian/source/format:3.0 (quilt) debian/control: quilt, debian/changelog: * d/s/format: Use 3.0 (quilt) format debian/changelog: * Use quilt instead of CDBS' simple-patchsys /tmp/libvc-012$ cat debian/README.source README.source for libvc ======================= This package uses quilt to manage all modifications to the upstream sources. See `/usr/share/doc/quilt/README.source' to get more information on how to use it. -- Rafael Laboissiere <[email protected]> Fri, 24 Apr 2009 15:56:10 +0200
