Hello,
I had a look at your package. Please not that I am not a DD, and so I
can't sponsor your contribution.
Build
-----
Your package builds in a clean sid chroot.
Lintian
-------
Your package is _not_ lintian clean. Here are the warnings upto -E:
- I: libpam-abl source: binary-control-field-duplicates-source field
"section" in package libpam-abl
This one is easy to fix, you can just remove the Section: line
from the binary package.
- I: libpam-abl: spelling-error-in-binary usr/bin/pam_abl Unkown Unknown
This one should be easy too, you can patch src/tools/pam_abl.c
near line 565. Upstream will probably be interested.
- I: libpam-abl: description-synopsis-might-not-be-phrased-properly
The full stop is not needed.
- O: libpam-abl: manpage-has-errors-from-man
usr/share/man/man1/pam_abl.1.gz 169: warning: macro `HTML-TAG' not
defined
- O: libpam-abl: manpage-has-errors-from-man
usr/share/man/man5/pam_abl.conf.5.gz 169: warning: macro `HTML-TAG'
not defined
- O: libpam-abl: manpage-has-errors-from-man
usr/share/man/man8/pam_abl.8.gz 169: warning: macro `HTML-TAG' not
defined
Instead of setting an override, you can probably patch the
manpages. This could also be related to a docbook bug.
debian/changelog
----------------
- "Initial release" is probably better than "New upstream release"
as it is the first one :).
- The two ITPs have been merged, so it is only necessary to close
one of them.
debian/rules
------------
- There is a trailing space line 6.
- Line 9 could be wrapped.
debian/control
--------------
- (see about the lintian warnings)
- Both your short and extended descriptions start with "pam_abl",
which is probably not informative enough. Other PAM modules seem
to use phrasings such as "PAM module blocking host which are
attempting a brute force attack"
- The versioned build-dep against debhelper can probably be bumped
at least to 8 (and debian/compat set to this value to), but I am
not sure about the exact version number.
Hope that helps !
Hi ,
I've uploaded a new version with mentioned fixes .
I didn't touch overrides because don't know how to fix these warnings ,
also I see that linitian complains about other packages as well .( samba
for example )
Thank you ,
Alex
