N:

N: a spelling checker does.
N:
N: If the string containing the spelling error is translated with the help of
N: gettext (with the help of po4a, for example) or a similar tool, please fix
N: the error in the translations as well as the English text to avoid making
N: the translations fuzzy. With gettext, for example, this means you should

P: cdecl source: package-uses-old-debhelper-compat-version 13
N:
N: This package uses a debhelper compatibility level that is no longer
N: recommended. Please consider using the recommended level.
N:
N: For most packages, the best way to set the compatibility level is to
N: specify debhelper-compat (= X) as a Build-Depends in debian/control. You
N: can also use the debian/compat file or export DH_COMPAT in debian/rules.
N:
N: If no level is selected debhelper defaults to level 1, which is

N:
N: This source package is not Debian-native but it does not have a
N: debian/upstream/metadata file.
N:
N: The Upstream MEtadata GAthered with YAml (UMEGAYA) project is an effort to
N: collect meta-information about upstream projects from any source package.
N: This file is in YAML format and it is used in to feed the data in the
N: UltimateDebianDatabase. For example, it can contains the way the authors
N: want their software be cited in publications and some bibliographic
N: references about the software.
N:
N: Please add a debian/upstream/metadata file.

N: using a cryptographic signature.
N:
N: If upstream distributions provides such signatures, please use the
N: pgpsigurlmangle options in this watch file's opts= to generate the URL of
N: an upstream OpenPGP signature. This signature is automatically downloaded
N: and verified against a keyring stored in debian/upstream/signing-key.asc
N:
N: Of course, not all upstreams provide such signatures but you could request
N: them as a way of verifying that no third party has modified the code after
N: its release (projects such as phpmyadmin, unrealircd, and proftpd have
N: suffered from this kind of attack).
