Control: owner -1 ! Control: tag -1 +moreinfo Control: block 927950 by -1 Hi Alexandru,
Welcome! I'd like to sponsor your work, and I hope that attention to detail doesn't annoy you. Please take a look at the questions in the following reply: Alexandru Mihail <alexandru_mih...@protonmail.ch> writes: > * Package name : mini-httpd > Version : 1.30-4 > Upstream contact : Jef Poskanzer j...@mail.acme.com > * URL : https://www.acme.com/software/mini_httpd > * License : BSD-2-clause > * Vcs : https://salsa.debian.org/debian/mini-httpd Do you intend to continue to maintain mini-httpd at this location (Vcs location), or do you have a new one in mind? Do you intend to maintain the package in git, and if so would you please share the remote of your fork? You don't have to if you don't want to, by the way. > mini-httpd (1.30-4) unstable; urgency=medium > . > * New maintainer. (Closes: #927950) Thank you for adopting this package! > * Added missing newline in the rules file > * Bumped Standards-Version to 4.5.1 This doesn't make sense, because, in 1.30-3, Håvard F. Aasen updated Standards-Version to 4.6.1; in other words, this line claims you regressed the package back to 4.5.1. Yes, Aasen didn't document this change in the changelog, and that makes it unclear what happened...maybe it was a "bump", but maybe Aasen did the work of checking the package was compliant. I'd like you to verify compliance with the current version of Debian Policy (4.6.2), and here is the checklist to help you along your way. Please start at 4.4.1. https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/upgrading-checklist.html. and I'd like to see you document your work with: * Declare compliance with Standards-Version 4.6.2. (no changes required) because I believe that you're not a robot ;) One of the perspectives I was mentored to uphold is that "bumping" is for robots. Please note that your sponsor will need to manually check for compliance with Policy before uploading. Yes, this means duplicate work, or even triplicate work if it was a package that needed ftpmaster review! The number is just a number, and what really counts is the work. On the topic of work, has upstream resolved any of these old bugs: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=mini-httpd If so, let's talk about closing them! This is a normal part of adopting a package (closing fixed bugs, and/or reopening ones that are still relevant). Regards, Nicholas
