If it's much consolation your packaging was basically sound, just a few bits you need to address. So hopefully you have something useful for next time. You could still use your package yourself (dpkg -i <.deb>), it just isn't a cadidate for the general archive. Next time it is wise to retitle your chosen RFP into an ITP (intent to package), which means developers can give you some immediate feedback about its suitability before you even start work. I hope this hasn't put you off packaging something else instead! -- Jonathan Wiltshire PGP/GPG: 0xDB800B52 / 4216 F01F DCA9 21AC F3D3 A903 CA6B EA3E DB80 0B52 Sending of encrypted mail is encouraged
