Some comments on your package: debian/copyright contains boilerplate that you should *READ*, take action and then remove! remove the configure target if debian/rules, it isn't used the short description should not just be the first line of the long description. use something like "display IMAP quota status in icedove" You run dh_installman while not installing any manual pages, why? Why is the package arch any? none of the installed files seem to be architecture specific You run dh_strip on a package that should be arch all, why? You run dh_installexamples while not installing any examples, why? The upstream tarball doesn't seem to have any copyright information or a licence, so by default we have no right to distribute it. No sponsor should upload this package. The upstream tarball has a prebuilt .jar that contains a DEADJOE file, upstream should remove that DEADJOE file. It would be nice if upstream could release a *source code* tarball as well as the prebuilt jar. You don't include a debian/watch file and a debian/rules get-orig-source target that knows how to recreate your .orig.tar.gz from the files that upstream provides. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

This maight not be enough.
In fact PHP's include expand symlink paths to originals paths, so you might
also need to add symlinks to /usr/share/../ at /var/cache/../, in case those
files include themselves files from /usr/share/.../
