Yes, you're perfectly right. I'll think of something pretty by tomorrow. > - You've made some miscellaneous changes but you didn't mention them in > the changelog: > * New upstream release > * Adoption of package (Closes: #307166) > For example: you've updated the standards-version, you've added a > dependency and made changes to debian/rules. Please make sure you > document all the packaging changes you make in your changelog. Ok, will do. I thought that such small changes shouldn't be in the changelog but, well, I'm new though already having read some of extensive Debian documentation. ;-) > - Standards-Version: you've changed this to 3.6.2.2, I'd suggest to > state just "3.6.2". The last part of the version number indicates > only textual/formatting revisions to the policy so it's not > significant for the package (i.e.: you never need to make changes > to your package between 3.6.2.2 and 3.6.2.3). Thanks for clarifying it, done. > - debian/rules: for clarity, please remove the commented-out dh_* > commands. Done. > - debhelper: you could consider moving to debhelper compatibility > level 5 (newest and recommended) but this is not necessary. Done. > - debian/copyright: doesn't list the years of the copyright, please see > http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2006/03/msg00023.html I've added the years and some other things suggested by this mail. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. > Good luck with the adoption, and if you look at these points I'm pretty > sure that someone will sponsor you. Thank you very much for your corrections and suggestions. I've uploaded a corrected version of the package. > bye, > Thijs Cheers, Franz -- Franz Pletz \ The Internet treats censorship as www: http://franz-pletz.org/ \ damage and routes around it. email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] \ -- John Gilmore -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
