Checking the source package: W: blimp source: binary-arch-rules-but-pkg-is-arch-indep W: blimp source: out-of-date-standards-version 3.7.2 (current is 3.7.3) I: blimp source: build-depends-without-arch-dep ant I: blimp source: build-depends-without-arch-dep sun-java6-jdk I: blimp source: build-depends-without-arch-dep libswt3.2-gtk-java I: blimp source: build-depends-without-arch-dep imagemagick I: blimp source: build-depends-without-arch-dep fakeroot Check: you're running the latest lintian, and be sure to use -i/-I so as to spot as many issues as possible. If you're running debuild or so with -b, be sure to run lintian on the source package (.dsc) as well. > I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.
