Request for a mentor: packages maim and everything

[Jay Bonci]

Good evening all.  I am requesting the aid of a mentor in my debian packaging.   So far I have put together 1.5 packages. I have a few more than I would like to do, but I need a few pointers to continue onward. The packages are located at: http://bonci.com/~jaybonci/debian/   If a mentor could take a look at the first package in an official capacity, that is the one I used to cut my teeth on the whole thing.  Lintian reports no errors. lintian has a field day on the otherone, as it doesn't yet follow debian standards for installation directories and such.  That is being worked on.   Basically I am looking into doing packaging and man pages for projects, and would like to get involved with Debian further.  The Control files are provided below for basic intos.   Any feedback is appreciated,               --Jay Bonci   p.s. I'd like to thank the redeye crew in #debian-devel irc.openprojects.com for late night questions being answered.   ===========================================   maim (myAim), instant messenger client   maim - http://www.css.tayloru.edu/~crussell/ Source: maim Section: net Priority: optional Maintainer: Jay Bonci <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Build-Depends: debhelper (>> 3.0.0) Standards-Version: 3.5.2 Package: maim Architecture: i386 Depends: ${shlibs:Depends} Description: GPL text-mode instant message client maim (MyAim) is a console AIM client based on the curses library. maim has simple layering, a clean layout and support for color terminals.
