+dfsg into version name: as our build will be bit-for-bit identical to one built from a non- stripped version of the source (the only difference between the source tarballs being unused mac/windows dirs), I don't see a point in adding the +dfsg to the binary package version, it clutters for no reason. (if pbuilder method has issues, then fix pbuilder...) instead of putting the new tarballs in svn, the latest idea is to put their md5sum in svn and put the tarball at http://pkg-grass.alioth.debian.org/tarballs/ ('get_latest_from_git.sh' now updated in svn with details about that which I hadn't checked in) > 2. src/nmea0183/* plugins/*/src/nmea0183/* have the > following: ... > So it is not clear which license it is under now?

We went through this one a couple weeks ago, I believe that Dave has the answer &/or has been in contact with the author .. > 3. plugins/grib_pi/src/Grib* plugins/grib_pi/src/Iso* > plugins/grib_pi/src/ZuFile > are taken fron ZyGrib and licensed as GPL-3+.

IIRC GPL3 for zygrib is a rather new feature, I wonder if the code was taken before or after that change? If new, I probably have an old gpl2 tarball of it around somewhere. > Beside this there are some less hard issues: > > 6.

(I thought I had already taken care of that, maybe I missed something or the new beta changes in a way I didn't expect) Also I need to double check the dispersion of the provided docs after the upstream path change there. thanks, Hamish -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
