Hello all! I'm packaging sel (I did an ITP on it yesterday); I've gotten to the point were the package correctly builds, goes trough lintian with no warnings, installs ok and deinstalls ok.
The package is relatively simple (well, only one bin, and actually just two or three code files)... my only doubt is if all the dpkg build targets are fully functional (I expect so, I've tested one or two and it worked without changing the default). The program has 'less' harcoded into it, and uses it has a pager to display the help, so I made the package depend on less... butt a better aproach would be to change the code so it would get the PAGER env var and go with it, in which case it would depend on a pager virtual package (IIRC there is one)... but let's mimagine the user has a pager but doesn't set the PAGER env? What is the Right Thing to do with this case? Change, not change? Also, the README is in German, I will contact upstream to make an english version :) BTW: are the original INSTALL files to be installed or not (the ones that say how to compile)? Well, this is all for now, thank you all :) best regards, fsm -- Frederico Serrano Muñoz GNU: http://www.gnu.org [EMAIL PROTECTED] Debian: http://www.debian.org SDF - Public Access Unix Systems - http://sdf.lonestar.org
