Here's everything i look at, and some stuff i forgot. See quoted message below.<-- long list of great stuff snipped -->
- Check license, make sure it is correct
- Emacs modules: must comply with emacs policy (/sw/share/doc/emacsen-common/debian-emacs-policy)
- Use a unified diff for patches
- patch files should be reasonable size, and all patches should be necessary (no accidental patching of backup files, no patching of .am files uncessarily)
-Ben
It would be great to have a list like this in the documentation on the web site. Package maintainers could use it as a checklist before submitting a package to the tracker, and it would help provide some standardization when validating packages.
