There are means to make your apt-get'table program available to users on registers of unofficial apt-get sites. I can't give you details, don't know them - my net connection is not good. The files in your diff file look nice and you seem to try to do proper work. I had no chance to see the source. atanks (1.1.0-1) is at least unusual for an Initial Release. install debian-policy. debian/changelog expects you to mention when you add a manpage. Check debian/copyright. Reading your debian/rules brought the dh_strip manpage back to me [1]. A debhelper based debian package may find other ways to handle nostrip. hack looks dangerous to me, but i have no experience with strace under that conditions. You found packaging manual and other documentation already? Search the websites, google, _*the pkg-archive*_ - may the source be with you :-) Try the mailing list archives on www.d.o and elsewhere, reading in debian-devel can enhance your english vocabulary incredibly and together with -mentors teach you lots about the 'unwritten' procedures and measures towards quality. Personally i don't have many games packages installed. There may be users of Debian that do have and may well enjoy a knowlegable handled package from you. Debian developers like anybody who is going to help improve any of the workareas they love or simply do. While KDE really has some source code to show. ;) does helping with Debian webpages certainly give you experience you'd search for. However you gain the experience, i hope that you staying with Debian will be enyoing and enlightening for you, the community and Debian developers. Have a nice day, martin - the expressed opinion is my own at Sun Feb 22 08:19:04 CET 2004 G.Marx - These are my opinions. If you don't like them, i have others. -- [1] man dh_strip - look at that nice options now!
