Good luck with it. Nobody bothered to upload gxine before the freeze...

I propose that the next release is called "hell" rather than "etch" ;-\

Uhm. No, I don't think thats right. Its a very common practices to close 
ITP bugs with the initial release, O/ITA bugs with the first upload by 
the new maintainer.

Cheers,

Well I don't agree with you. I think that having sponsor eventually you can
put the following entry in changelog:

  * First official Debian release (Closes: #XX)

That's IMHO still better than closing bugs manually.

This should be probably called python-chm.

Now some comments on your packages.

 * You don't close your WNPP bugs with changelogs entries.
 * You don't use ${python:Depends} in gnochm, but write versions of python
   manually. In fact I have no idea how did you get such exact version
   numbers for dependencies.
 * Please fix copyright file. You don't include info about copyright
   holder. Old dh_make template was broken in that matter. Take a look at 
   new templates.
 
And if gnochm needs pychm to work, then you should probably start looking
sponsor for pychm first, and then if it will enter archive, start looking
sponsor for gnochm.

fEnIo

The packages build-essential and dpkg-dev depend on make [1]. So there
is no reason to add make to 'Build-Depends:' line.

[1] Have a look at 'apt-cache depends build-essential dpkg-dev'.

RFS2: gnochm - CHM file viewer for GNOME

2005-05-03 Thread Carlos Z.F. Liu
Hello, dear mentors

I'm looking for a sponsor willing to check and upload deb packages for
python-pychm and gnochm. python-pychm is the python binding for CHMLIB
library, and gnochm is the file viewer based on python-pychm.

This is the second RFS for gnochm. I did once few months ago, but
failed to get a sponsor. After that, I saw many users visit my blog by
google "gnochm deb", and some people built their own powerpc[1] version
base on my work, and it worked very well. Last week, upstream release a
new version, so I think it's worth to have another try.

There are some differences between gnochm and xchm (I assume some of you
want to know). First, pychm provide a python binding which could be
reused by other applications. Second, gnochm has a better interface and
integrate in GNOME desktop very well. Of course, there should be some
others I don't know or forgot to mention.

All files (source, deb, changes, dsc and diff) of these two packages
were put in http://chinese.alioth.debian.org/gnochm/ and
http://mentors.debian.net/. They're lintian and linda clean.

Related WNPP Bugs: #277085, #277087, #288353, #290262

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Sven, I did run lintian, however my version was a bit out of
date.  The new version reported all those errors :P

So I shouldn't need to depend on make?  I should just assume it's
installed?
