I'm assuming by this you meant I should only include Vcs-* if the debian/ directory is in a separate repository? Please let me know if not, but for now I removed these The typical way in Debian to maintain a package via git is using git-buildpackage. That uses one branch for upstream source (without debian/) and one branch for the changes in debian/, merging upstream code on new releases. And usually, the packages are maintained in Debian's salsa Gitlab instance. It is preferrable to maintain it that way but you can keep your current workflow if you like. There is one very important tool for packaging that is called lintian. Please run it on your package. Please fix at least the following lintian messages: E: heaptrace source: source-is-missing test/double_free2 E: heaptrace source: source-is-missing test/double_free2-stripped E: heaptrace source: source-is-missing test/double_free3 E: heaptrace source: source-is-missing test/double_free4 E: heaptrace source: source-is-missing test/double_free5 E: heaptrace source: source-is-missing test/ls E: heaptrace source: source-is-missing test/memleak-stripped W: heaptrace: description-starts-with-leading-spaces W: heaptrace: initial-upload-closes-no-bugs W: heaptrace: wrong-manual-section usr/share/man/man1/heaptrace.1.gz:3 1 != 8 I: heaptrace source: debian-watch-file-is-missing I: heaptrace: typo-in-manual-page usr/share/man/man1/heaptrace.1.gz detatch detach Also, debian/files must not be included in the git tree.

Hi Aaron, You have to target unstable or experimental with your package. This is Debian, not Ubuntu. Please do not ship .EX files in your debian directory. Your debian/README* files do not contain usefule info. Please remove them and make heaptrace-docs.docs include upstream's README.md instead. The Vcs-* fields in debian/control should point to the repo where you maintain your debian directory. If you do not put it in source control directly, please remove the fields. Please use debhelper-compat to get rid of the debian/compat file. This is not a native package, so please edit debian/source/format to say "3.0 (quilt)" and edit the version in debian/changelog to end with the Debian revision "-1". Please remove unnecessary comments like at the bottom of d/copyright and in d/rules. When you are done and have provided a new upload, please untag moreinfo on this bug. Please let me know if there is any action I need to take--this is my first time following this process. I'm happy to provide support, make changes to the package or software, etc. - Aaron
