It does not. Some quick comments: * lmfit produced from your current source contains only documentation. (renaming lmfit1.* files should help) * AFAICT, you are packaging a library => the package name should match its soname. * the changelog entry does not close any ITP bug. * debian/docs is an empty file * manpages are not installed -- Stanislav -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
