Hallo Rich, A short review: (I am not a DD/DM, so I cannot upload.)
I think "yt" as a package name is too short and well can cause collisions down the road, please consider renaming it (and the executeable) How about youtube-cli? Your package has linitian warnings, please fix them. You should also not put your .git directory in your tarball d/README.source IMHO the workflow on the debian packaging repository should be compaptible with git-buildpackage, then this file is not needed. I cannot find the upstream location of the tarball, but we'll need one. There is also no get-orig-source target to regenerate the upstream tarball. There is an extra License: MIT paragraph in d/copyright (line 13+14) d/rules: your overrides seems not to be needed: You execute in the overriden target same dh_* command. Ask upstream to provide a changelog. The package does not build two times in a row: dpkg-source: info: local changes detected, the modified files are: yt-2013.09.28/src/whitey.egg-info/PKG-INFO yt-2013.09.28/src/whitey.egg-info/SOURCES.txt yt-2013.09.28/src/whitey.egg-info/dependency_links.txt yt-2013.09.28/src/whitey.egg-info/entry_points.txt yt-2013.09.28/src/whitey.egg-info/not-zip-safe yt-2013.09.28/src/whitey.egg-info/top_level.txt Best regards, coldtobi Linitian output (cleaned up a little) P: yt source: source-contains-git-control-dir .git P: yt source: source-contains-prebuilt-windows-binary .git/objects/15/60a4fb268be93a02f03b3b0c1c2a6c9a4fcd81 (many of those follows) W: yt source: out-of-date-standards-version 3.9.3 (current is 3.9.4) I: yt source: debian-watch-file-is-missing P: yt: no-upstream-changelog I: yt: spelling-error-in-manpage usr/share/man/man1/yt.1.gz prefered preferred I: yt: spelling-error-in-manpage usr/share/man/man1/yt.1.gz prefered preferred I: yt: hyphen-used-as-minus-sign usr/share/man/man1/yt.1.gz:30 I: yt: hyphen-used-as-minus-sign usr/share/man/man1/yt.1.gz:38 W: yt: binary-without-manpage usr/bin/pi-yt Am Samstag, den 28.09.2013, 01:46 -0500 schrieb Javier P.L.: > Package: sponsorship-requests > Severity: normal whislist > > I am looking for a sponsor for my package "yt" > > * Package name : yt > Version : 2013.09.28-1 > Upstream Author : Rich Wareham <rj...@cantab.net> > * URL : https://github.com/rjw57/yt > * License : MIT > Section : web > > It builds those binary packages: > > yt - command-line YouTube client > > To access further information about this package, please visit the > following URL: > > http://mentors.debian.net/package/yt > > Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: > > dget -x > http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/y/yt/yt_2013.09.28-1.dsc > > Changes since the last upload: > > Initial release, closes: #724801. > > Regards, > Javier Lopez > > -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
