Okay, plplot_5.6.1-1 has been accepted in unstable.  I already uploaded
version 5.6.1-2 which contains the necessary changes for adapting
python-plplot to the new Policy.  The trickiest part was to
configure/make/install the upstream sources for both python2.3 and
python2.4.

At any event, since I not very familiar with Python (neither with the
Python modules/extensions packaging practices), I would appreciate if
some Python guru could review my changes.

Thanks,

Manual package check and example

2006-06-25 Thread Kai Hendry 
http://hendry.iki.fi/debian/unstable/webpy_0.138-2_i386.changes

I had another go with policy, though I can't run it through lintian atm
due to a broken tar(#375300).

Could someone please check over the diff?
http://hendry.iki.fi/debian/unstable/webpy_0.138-2.diff.gz

If it's good, it could serve as an example. I think it's quite typical.

It looks ok at first sight, however you're being a bit more complicated
than necessary:
 1. postinst and prerm are autogenerated by dh_pysupport, so the
code will end up being duplicated;
 2. you don't really need to move the files
to /usr/share/python-support yourself, they should be moved
automatically; this is harmless, as of course dh_pysupport still
works with files moved by hand;
 3. you should use ${python:Depends};
 4. you don't need python-all-dev for such a package, only
python-dev.
