Hi Pierre, thanks for your work on osmctools and sorry for my late reply - I'm just back from vacation.

This would lead to the consequence that the ITP bug you try to close in 0.1-1 will not be closed because only the last changelog paragraph is regarded. I'd also suggest to simply drop the whole 0.1-2 paragraph because osmctools 0.1-1 never has hit the Debian mirror (or did I missed anything). Please just update the time stamp of 0.1-1. > RFS: > http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=722450 > > ITP: > http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=722429 > > And the package is here: > http://blends.alioth.debian.org/gis/tasks/osm Great. Could you please add an according entry to https://wiki.debian.org/DebianPureBlends/SoB I would like to have a record for the sponsored packages to have some sign that the SoB effort is useful. > For history, I discovered osmconvert on this page > http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=710042 > On first, I wanted to build osmconvert, but when i contacted the > upstream developer, he told me about his tools, osmfilter and > osmupdate. > So I decided to create a package for all binaries. In principle this is OK but we somehow need some versioning and if anyhow possible a watch file to spot new versions. This might be hard in this case (I have not checked upstream). Perhaps it might even be possible to convince upstream to create some common versioned tarball? In any case you need to create a get-orig-source target in debian/rules that would enable anybody to reproduce the source tarball. BTW, please remove the dh-make boilerplate form the debian/rules file which claims that it is a "Sample debian/rules that uses debhelper." You rules file is no example but rather a rules file creating a specific package. The whole comment is just not true.
