Hi Pádraig, I might be able to sponsor this, but I have some concerns below.

Upgrade your lintian and fix these problems: N: Processing source package fslint (version 2.26-1) ... W: fslint source: out-of-date-standards-version 3.7.2 (current is 3.7.3) N: N: The source package refers to a 'Standards-Version' that is starting to N: get out of date, compared to current Policy. You can safely ignore N: this warning, but please consider updating the package to current N: Policy. N: N: ---- N: Processing binary package fslint (version 2.26-1) ... I: fslint: desktop-entry-contains-encoding-key /usr/share/applications/fslint.desktop:8 Encoding N: N: The Encoding key is now deprecated by the FreeDesktop standard and all N: strings are required to be encoded in UTF-8. This desktop entry N: explicitly specifies an Encoding of UTF-8, which is harmless but no N: longer necessary. N: N: Refer to N: http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/1.0/apc.html for N: details. N: W: fslint: description-contains-homepage N: N: The extended description contains a "Homepage:" pseudo-header N: following the old Developer's Reference recommendation. As of 1.14.6, N: dpkg now supports Homepage: as a regular field in debian/control. This N: header should be moved from the extended description to the fields for N: the relevant source or binary packages. > The package can be found on mentors.debian.net: > - URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/f/fslint > - Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main > con> > - dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/f/fslint/fslint_2.26-1.dsc Some more comments: Unless you released 2.25-1 somewhere else, merge the unreleased 2.25-1 and 2.26-1 changelog entries into one 2.26-1, otherwise the bugs probably won't get closed automatically. The changelog entry for 2.22-2 disappeared, add it back in. Not required, but the use of the many install commands in the rules file should, in my opinion, be made more understandable by using debhelper's dh_install command and a separate fslint.install file. Also not required, but the use of perl to set the location of the installed files in the fslint-gui program should be replaced by a patch, using quilt (preferably) or dpatch, so that it is more clear exactly what is being changed from upstream. Other than these minor problems, it looked good. Cameron -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
