I am looking for a sponsor for my package "spcaview".
Hi Luca,
some simple notes:
* debian/changelog
- maybe you can delete the line "* This is my first Debian package"
it is nothing related tho this package.. :)
* debian/control
- in the long description, you should separate paragraph with a dot ".":
spcaview is a webcam viewer written in C. It's easy to use and have
many features, such record video, audio, capture images, stream and
many more.
.
With this package you also have spcaserv, that's a multithread
streaming server over TCP.
.
And, finally, you have spcacat, a simple picture grabber.
(with a little reformat) but you can merge the last to parag into:
With this package you also have spcaserv, that's a multithread
streaming server over TCP and spcacat, a simple picture grabber.
- add Homepage meta-tag as stated in developers reference 6.2.4
* debian/copyright
- I'd like to see a more complete file; take a look at these message:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2003/12/msg00007.html
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2006/03/msg00023.html
http://lists.debian.org/debian-legal/2003/12/msg00194.html
- Please check _every_ file in the package: for example
./SDL_audioin_internal.h has
* Copyright (C) 2004 by Tyler Montbriand *
* [EMAIL PROTECTED] *
* *
* Released under the GNU LGPL *
you have to mention all this file, with their relative license, in
debian/copyright. Other files with different copyright are:
./shc.{c,h}, ./avilib.c, ./readme.avilib, ./dpsh.{c,h},
./http-java-applet/JWebcamPlayer.java, ./SDL_audioin.h,
./audioin_devdsp.c, ./shclib.{c,h}, ./audio_detect.h .
To find them use find . -exec less {} \; tedious but complete...
* debian/watch
- remove all commented out lines, leave only version and url; the
url should be corrected (somehow):
$ uscan --report --verbose
-- Scanning for watchfiles in .
-- Found watchfile in ./debian
-- In debian/watch, processing watchfile line:
http://mxhaard.free.fr/spca50x/Download/spcaview-(.*)\.tar\.gz
-- Found the following matching hrefs:
spcaview-20051212.tar.gz
Newest version on remote site is 20051212, local version is 1.1.5
=> Newer version available from
http://mxhaard.free.fr/spca50x/Download/spcaview-20051212.tar.gz
-- Scan finished
* debian/rules
- remove template header
- remove commented dh_ tools call in binary-common target
* misc stuff
- lintian warning: you have to provide a (minimal) manpage for every
program in the package:
W: spcaview: binary-without-manpage spcacat
W: spcaview: binary-without-manpage spcaserv
- what are these files: spcaview-doc.{docs,install} ? would you like
to create a separate doc package ?
- why did you leave files {pre,post}{inst,rm} ? they are empy, so
you can remove them
I think for the first review this is enought... :)
Good luck in finding a sponsor (I'm not a DD, so cant upload)
Kind Regards,
Sandro
