Hi, I am not a DD, so I cannot sponsor etc. I checked your package, it builds in pbuilder, is lintian clean and it looks good. Some random remarks: * Linda says: $ linda ustr_1.0.1-1_i386.changes W: libustr-1.0-1; The library libustr is not in a shlibs file. W: libustr-debug-1.0-1; The library libustr-debug is not in a shlibs file. E: libustr-debug-1.0-1; Binary /usr/lib/libustr-debug-1.0.so.1.0.1 contains unneeded section comment. E: libustr-debug-1.0-1; Binary /usr/lib/libustr-debug-1.0.so.1.0.1 is not stripped. * you use debian/patches to fix some things in upstream sources, that is good. I noticed you change the upstream Makefile, but leave the changes in the ustr_1.0.1-1.diff.gz file - why not to create a regular patch and put that into debian/patches among your other patches? * your sponsor will probably require to add an extra space in the Homepage in all your descriptions: . Homepage: http://www.and.org/ustr/ or use the new Homepage field. * uscan didn't work for me: $ uscan --verbose -- Scanning for watchfiles in . -- Found watchfile in ./debian -- In debian/watch, processing watchfile line: http://www.and.org/ustr/(?:\d+\.\d+\.\d+)/ustr-(.*)\.tar\.gz Parsing of undecoded UTF-8 will give garbage when decoding entities at /usr/share/perl5/LWP/Protocol.pm line 114, <WATCH> line 2. and it hangs.
