I uploaded a new build of the package: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/l/lbzip2 Changes since last upload: - package is built in a sid chroot - added "debian-sanity" target to Makefile which executes basic compression/decompressin checks, using 10^7 bytes from /dev/urandom - "debian-sanity" depends on "lbzip2" - the "install" target depends on "debian-sanity" - the "clean" target removes "debian-sanity"'s temporary files - since "debian-sanity" uses uuencode (to give lbzip2 a bit more work), added "sharutils" as a new build dependency - added missing comma (,) before ${misc:Depends} - CFLAGS contains -g3 unconditionally - updated and reformatted debian/changelog - the only remaining lintian lament is the pedantic "direct-changes-in-diff-but-no-patch-system" which I don't have to fix, according to the last citation above.
