Just a few small questions/comments from skimming through the debdiff: - You added a small dpkg-maintscript-helper snippet to debian/ledgersmb.postrm, specifically checking if dpkg is new enough to support mv_conffile before using it; what happens if dpkg isn't sufficiently new enough to support that / is that something that should just fail? You can simply add a Pre-Depends: ${misc:Pre-Depends} (which will add a pre-dependency on the appropriate version of dpkg) if you want to use dpkg-maintscript-helper and not have to worry about whether dpkg is new enough (and avoid that "if dpkg-maintscript-helper supports mv_conffile" logic). - Why bump the version number in debian/NEWS when there isn't a new entry, and nothing else in the file has changed aside from the timestamp? That seems likely to just annoy apt-listchanges users. Also, note that since Debian is in freeze right now, if you wish to target unstable, any (RC) bugfix uploads that you wish to get into jessie would then have to go through testing-proposed-updates (which the release team apparently really doesn't like). Are you sure you're ok with that? Regards, Vincent -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
