Hi Eriberto,
I've now uploaded a new package to mentors.debian.net with nearly all
the issues fixed.
1. Changelog now contains one entry only
2. Fixed line break before column 80.
Added VCS-control pointing to branch on github where debian/
folder is kept. Vcs-Browser points to the correct branch (debian) on
github, but I didn't get Vcs-Git to point to a specific branch, but
it points to the correct git-repository.
3. I've gone through all Copyright-lines in all the files and I hope I
have included all. However, after I put the licenses separately below,
a few lintian information warnings appeared. I'm not sure what is best
to do here.
4. NEWS removed. gnuais.conf-example installed by gnuais.examples.
Patch added so that the program knows where to find the example
configuration file since it is used as a template the first
time gnuais runs. (01_conf_location.patch)
5. NEWS removed. OpenStreetMap is provided by libosmgpsmap which is in
d/control. I haven't written a README.Debian file since I don't think
there is anything special that applies for Debian users
compared to other users.
6. I've added an icon for gnuaisgui. I have not added for gnuais since
it is a command line utility only.
7. Because I had to add two patches, the patches-directory is still there
8. Removed useless comments from d/rules
9. Changed to recommended watch-url-style for github
10. I've gotten rid of the hardening-no-fortify-functions with 02_cflags.patch.
The "debian-watch-may-check-gpg-
signature" is still there. I hope
I don't have to fix that one. I may look into that later.
11. Added LDFLAGS to avoid useless dependency
12. I've removed the -dbg packages.
Let me know if I also have to fix
"debian-watch-may-check-gpg-signature" or if there are other things
left to do.
Thanks a lot!
Regards
Ruben
