Wrong - all the sponsor has to do is use '-v2.25-0 -sa'. dpkg-genchanges collates all Closes: entries in whichever versions the maintainer chooses to include by using the -v option. All bugs listed in the .changes file will be closed by that upload. '-sa' might not be essential in this specific case but as the other changes will need a new upload to mentors, the actual version will be 2.26-2 and then '-sa' will be needed. http://people.debian.org/~codehelp/#increment (And don't blame me if Adblock Plus breaks the page - use a sane ad blocker, like the one in epiphany-browser.) > 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. dh_install is preferred because if anyone needs to customise the build using DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS, dh_install will use those options, install will not. This means that a customised build has to patch debian/rules instead of just setting an environment variable. -- Neil Williams <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
