possible sponsorship into Debian. There is no obligation on behalf of the
submitter to make any alterations based upon information provided in the
review.

Review...

1. Build:

  * pbuilder [1]: Good
  * sbuild [2]: Good

2. Lintian [3]: Experimental, non blocking

X: descent3: executable-in-usr-lib [usr/lib/descent3/Descent3]
N: 
N:   The package ships an executable file in /usr/lib.
N:   
N:   Please move the file to /usr/libexec.
N:   
N:   With policy revision 4.1.5, Debian adopted the Filesystem Hierarchy
N:   Specification (FHS) version 3.0.
N:   
N:   The FHS 3.0 describes /usr/libexec. Please use that location for
N:   executables.
N: 
N:   Please refer to File System Structure (Section 9.1.1) in the Debian
Policy
N:   Manual, filesystem-hierarchy,
N:   https://refspecs.linuxfoundation.org/FHS_3.0/fhs/ch04s07.html, and
N:   Bug#954149 for details.
N: 
N:   Visibility: pedantic
N:   Show-Always: no
N:   Check: files/permissions/usr-lib
N:   This tag is experimental.
N: 
N:   Screen: emacs/elpa/scripts
N:     Advocates: "David Bremner" <brem...@debian.org>
N:     Reason: The emacsen-common package places installation and removal
N:             scripts, which for ELPA packages are executable, in the folder
N:             /usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages.
N:             
N:             About four hundred installation packages are affected. All of
N:             them declare emacsen-common as an installation prerequisite.
N:             
N:             Read more in Bug#974175 and Bug#954149.
N: 
N:   Screen: web/cgi/scripts
N:     Advocates: "Andrius Merkys" <mer...@debian.org>
N:     Reason: The folder /usr/lib/cgi-bin/ is designated for scripts in the
N:             Common Gateway Interface (CGI). They require the executable
bit
N:             so the server can run them.
N:             
N:             Read more in
N:             https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_Gateway_Interface,
N:             https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc3875.html, and
N:             Bug#1003941.

3. Licenses [4]: Good

4. Watch file [uscan --force-download]: Good

5. Build Twice [sudo pbuilder build --twice <package>.dsc]: Good

6. Reproducible builds [5]: Issue, non blocker. Would be nice to resolve.

Not reproducible, even when fixing as much as reprotest knows how to. :(

7. Install [No previous installs]: Good

8. Upgrade [Over previous installs if any]: N/A

Summary...

I believe <PACKAGE> is ready for review/possible sponsorship. Could a Debian
Developer (DD) with available free time, please review this package and
upload if you feel it is ready and appropriate for the distribution.

Regards

Phil
