I find the naming of patch 10 a bit confusing or is this a pun I don't get currently? How many of these patches have been proposed for upstream inclusion? Beside that I wonder if it would make sense to rely more on the dh_ tools instead of self crafted stuff like cd debian/tmp ; find . -type f ! -path "./DEBIAN*" -print0 | xargs -0 md5sum | sed -e 's!\./!!' > DEBIAN/md5sums chmod 644 debian/tmp/DEBIAN/md5sums dpkg-gencontrol -isp chown -R root.root debian/tmp chmod -R go=rX debian/tmp dpkg --build debian/tmp .. dh_perl dh_md5sums It doesn't even make sense to generate the md5sum file first by hand, create the package itself and then run dh_perl and dh_md5sums. dh_perl even throws out a visible message that someting is wrong. And yes that is wrong. The naming of the mytop.example file is also a bit unlucky since that would also match dh_installexamples, and yes I see that's currently not used in this package but could be a source of further confusion. For the maintainerscripts I'll have to reread the relevant policy parts myself first. If it was my package I wouldn't even install a menu item for such a tool but that's up to you in the end. Oh and dh_installmenu exists to free one from the burden of writing the correct maintainer scripts for that task.
