Hello Steven,

I am sponsoring right now your package colorize/0.66 into Debian, as you submitted it on mentors.debian.org last month.

I will juste change the version number in debian/watch : 3 to 4.

Also when building I got the Lintian warning

I: colorize: file-references-package-build-path [usr/bin/colorize]
N:
N:   The listed file or maintainer script appears to reference the build path
N:   used to build the package as specified in the Build-Path field of the
N:   .buildinfo file.
N:
N:   This is likely to cause the package to be unreproducible, but it may also
N:   indicate that the package will not work correctly outside of the
N:   maintainer's own system.
N:
N:   Please note that this tag will not appear unless the .buildinfo file
N:   contains a Build-Path field. That field is optional. You may have to set
N:   DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=buildinfo=+path or use
N:   --buildinfo-option=--always-include-path with dpkg-buildpackage when
N:   building.
N:
N:   Please refer to https://reproducible-builds.org/,
N:   https://wiki.debian.org/ReproducibleBuilds/BuildinfoFiles, and the
N:   dpkg-genbuildinfo(1) manual page for details.
N:
N:   Visibility: info
N:   Show-Always: no
N:   Check: files/contents

which indicates that the executable embeds some path of the system it was built on. It would be good to manage it so that the build is independent of the place it happens in, in order to enhance build reproducibility and to be sure it will work on whatever computer.

Thanks for your wokr on this!

Best,
