Control: retitle -1 pcre2: Please switch to 3.0 (quilt) I filed https://bugs.debian.org/862425 which has now been closed. I kinda feel like my bug was hijacked by a dgit supporter. pcre2 is the first package I've noticed where dgit is used and to put it bluntly, it hasn't left a good impression. I'm sure I'm coming across as upset but I waited almost 6 months and the only improvement we got is a minimal README.
Please switch to a standard 3.0 (quilt) workflow. I assume that dgit-maint-gbp will work fine. That way you can keep using dgit since apparently you like it. And the packaging is actually maintained in a way that will allow for Ubuntu developers to easily backport security fixes. Otherwise, I feel like Ubuntu is more or less forced to "fork" the packaging in Ubuntu to switch to 3.0 (quilt) to have a normal, modern workflow. Secondly, please add Vcs fields to your debian/control . That way someone doesn't have to find and read a README first. The Vcs fields have nice integration on pages like https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/mdadm Thanks, Jeremy Bicha
