-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi Michal,
thanks for your reply. I've added comments to the various lintian errors right below. >> The packages are based on previous work by Peter and were only >> changed to include the latest upstream version. > > It would be good to fix some Lintian warnings as well: > > P: egroupware-egw-pear source: > direct-changes-in-diff-but-no-patch-system > egw-pear/HTTP/WebDAV/Server.php and 5 more egroupware-egw-pear contains copies of pear modules, which are needed for egroupware to run. Some of those modules have been touched by Peter. However I don't think they will be updated to newer upstream versions anywhere soon. Therefore I added an override for this. > W: egroupware-egw-pear source: out-of-date-standards-version 3.8.2 > (current is 3.8.4) Fixed. > W: egroupware source: out-of-date-standards-version 3.8.2 (current is > 3.8.4) Fixed. > I: egroupware-core: > possible-documentation-but-no-doc-base-registration > I: egroupware-etemplate: possible-documentation-but-no-doc-base-registration Those errors were already present, but I don't know how important they are. Do I have to fix them? > I: egroupware-core: unused-debconf-template egroupware/configuration/note > I: egroupware-core: unused-debconf-template egroupware/header/password/mismatch It is used in egroupware-core.config, however this is not detected by lintian. Should I add an override or is this a bug in lintian? > I: egroupware-addressbook: debian-news-entry-without-blank-line line > 6 Fixed. > P: egroupware-*: no-upstream-changelog I've read http://lintian.debian.org/tags/no-upstream-changelog.html and noticed the sentence about multiple binary packages produced from a single source. However in the upstream tarball several Changelog files are located troughout the source tree, some of which have not been touched for several years. I'll try and ask the egroupware developers to add a central changelog to their released tarballs, which I can then link/copy or place in the main egroupware-core package. As I did not change anything here, I assume that those errors were present before. I'd like to address them in future. Please let me know if you think they are important enough to prevent the package from being accepted. > P: egroupware-felamimail: copyright-refers-to-symlink-license > usr/share/common-licenses/LGPL The file in question is from the horde project, which linked to the LGPL at http://www.fsf.org/copyleft/lgpl.html . I think this justifies symlinking to the latest version of LGPL, but of course I can change it to whatever seems more appropriate. I didn't change this as well. > W: egroupware-core: embedded-php-library W: egroupware-core: > embedded-javascript-library W: egroupware-phpsysinfo: > embedded-php-library W: egroupware-projectmanager: > embedded-php-library W: egroupware-projectmanager: > duplicate-font-file All errors above were already present in the debian packages built by Peter, so I assumed, it might be OK to leave them untouched. Especially as fixing them would inflict a lot of work and I suspect would also cause version conflicts between the current versions in debian and the versions needed by egroupware (except maybe for the fonts). Shall I add them to overrides then? I hope my comments clear out some of the concerns. Where possible I added a fix and uploaded new versions of the packages. Regarding all other problems, I'm open for any comment or discussion. Thanks for your help.
