Here are some comments:
- I assume libjline-java will pull the needed java machinery so you
don't have to depend on a java runtime environment; is that correct?
- I assume ant doesn't call any java-ish stuff in the clean target;
otherwise you would have to move java-gcj-compat-dev to B-D.
- Please add full stops at the end of the sentences of your long
description. The other dots are only here for “folding” (see RFC
(2)822).
- Nothing important, but you have trailing spaces in debian/copyright,
you may want to use show-wspace.el if you're an Emacs user.
- Not sure whether you're pointing at the BSD license is sufficient,
usually (at least for GPL), a blurb is needed (3 paragraphs). But if
you're confident enough, I leave that up to ftpmasters. :)
- Also, when packaging something under a “liberal” license (like the
BSD licenses), you may want to license the packaging under the same
license, that might help upstream integrate patches, and so on.
- I'd s/(C)/©/ in your copyright statement (about Debian packaging)
since only “Copyright”, “Copr.”, and “©” are legally recognized.
- You may want to limit the line length of your README.Debian to <= 80
characters; might improve readibility, especially on servers with
only the default 80x25 console.
- No space before “:”, “;”, “!”, etc. in English (same file).
- Also, s/take/takes/.
- README.source (whitespaces again) can disappear. All copyright info
must be in debian/copyright, so please move its contents there.
- debian/rules:
- whitespaces line 2.
- if you're using dh_install in “install/sqlline:”, no need to add
this directory to the “dirs” file.
- you could modify this target like that:
- put the jar file and its location in an “install” file.
- do the same for the wrapper.
- only do a “mv” in this target.
- the “dirs” file can go away.
- I think we already discussed the presence of svn-deblayout so I won't
insist on it. :)
That was only a review of the most important things of the source part,
I'll have a look at the build/binary part once you've addressed some of
those points. ;-)
