Here's a review, but incomplete as I only have a few minutes. (Maybe someone jumps in as well) I see that your package has several DDs a uploaders. I'm wondering why they don't upload it for you, if they co-maintain the package? Did you file an RFS-Bug? In d/changelog, there are many versions that where never in Debian, also it reads more like an upstream changelog than an Debian changelog. On the other side, changes to debian/* are not explained. (e.g the fact and the resons why to update all the versions of the dependencies in d/control). Refer to the Policy about d/changelog. d/compat is 7, mind to upgrade the package to compat level 9? d/cl-launch.1 The manpage says "generated with Ronn/v0.7.3". If it is autogenerated, it needs to be done at build time. d/control You do not have a VCS-Browser tag About your layout: It is not recommended to have the debian directory in your master branch, as you cannot independently work on those. Think of NMUs and how you would be able to integrate such changes in your repository? (I suggest to put the debian packaging into its own branch.) This is also the point where I point people to https://wiki.debian.org/UpstreamGuide, if they are upstream and maintainer at the same time. d/rules could be transformed to short debhelper format. (note: did not check alls details in d/copyright, so just a few things I saw at first glance) d/copyright: - The bugroff license text is missing. - Copyright years are not up to date Ok, have to go now. -- tobi _______________________________________________ pkg-common-lisp-devel mailing list pkg-common-lisp-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-common-lisp-devel
