Fair enough.

 Dear mentors,

 of my package tspc.

debian/rules
- if you need a patched clean target, then do

clean: clean-patched unpatch
clean-patched: $(QUILT_STAMPFN)
  do real clean tuff

  without calling debian/rules clean.
- install is .PHONY so no need for an install-stamp
- no .PHONY is defined toh, better if you check dh_make template or
other packages

debian/control
- you could add even a Vcs-Browser pointing to the web git interface
- you can remove the last line . from description
- uncapitalize Client from short description

Since you claim  compatibility with policy 3.8.0 and you're using
quilt as patch system, you have to provide a README.source to explain
that quilt is in use (simple exemple in matplotlib package).

debian/copyright
- no need to clearly indicate the tarball of the upsteam code, just
the website is enough
- it's better to link to GPL-2 files on local system (instead of
simple GPL), and so license the package
- misses many information, like correcy copyright years intervall (I
see a 2001 beginning, for example) and for example
platform/windows/libopenvpn/buffer.h has copyright holder as
Copyright (C) 2002-2003 James Yonan [EMAIL PROTECTED], like many other
files in the upstream tarball. Please check every source file in the
upstream tarball (I usually run a 'find . -type f -exec less {} \;'
over the full source code to find these files, you can even use
licensecheck, but don't rely solely on it).

debian/watch
- is missing: what about adding it?

Please fix those points (in particular copyright part, which mainly
prevents the upload) and reupload to mentos (same debian revision for
me).

debian/rules:

- What is reason for version=... magic on top?
- Please remove commented out things.
- Also you could use more of debhelber 7 capabilities...

debian/*.dirs:

None of them is IMHO needed.

debian/changelog:

- You should close an ITP bug you open for new package.
- There is no need to include upstream changelog here
(dh_installchangelogs should install the upstream one anyway).

debian/control:

- Library package should include soname in name, eg. librcd0
- Please use current standards version.
- Please create better description, especially long one.

- You miss debian/README.source.
- please remove comments from many files in debian/, that they are

- this package looks like an ideal candidate for using just dh command
in debian/rules, I believe it would work
with /usr/share/doc/debhelper/examples/rules.simple (after adding
dpatch hooks)
- Are you sure package needs python-gtk2-dev for building? As it does
not contain single line of C code, I doubt it really needs it.

RFS: gnome-launch-box (updated package)

2008-12-03 Thread Julien Lavergne
Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 0.4-1
of my package gnome-launch-box.

It builds this binary package:
gnome-launch-box - An application launcher for GNOME

The package appears to be lintian clean.

The upload would fix this bug: 451098

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/gnome-launch-box
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main 
contrib non-free
- dget 
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/g/gnome-launch-box/gnome-launch-box_0.4-1.dsc

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.

Kind regards
 Julien Lavergne

 How does it compare to enca, which supports several languages including
 Russian?

Author write:

The RusXMMS libraries are something more than just encoding auto-detection. 
The LibRCD is a counterpart of Enca. However, enca was developed to analyze 
long text files while LibRCD is more optimized to short titles consisting 
only from few words, like ID3 titles, file names, etc. For short Russian and 
Unkrainian words it significantly improves detection accuracy. Another, 
important advantage of LibRCD is ability to detect real ISO8859-1 encoding 
what allows to properly display correct ID3 v.1 titles.

However, just detecting encoding in current language is often not enough. It 
happens what you are working with lists in multiple languages. I have 
playlists containing Russian, Chinese, French and German music. Therefore, 
the library needs to provide ability to manage multiple languages. It is also 
desirable to specify default encodings for each of language in which the data 
would be stored back. So, the LibRCC supports few encoding detection engines: 
LibRCD (Russian, Ukrainian), Enca (East-european languages), LibGUESS 
(Chinese, Korean, Japanese) and provides transparent recoding in multiple 
languages. As well it brings support for transliteration, translation (using 
libtranslate), so you know what all that strange looking Chinese symbols 
mean. LibRCC also includes UI library providing easy integration of recoding 
options in the configuration menu of GTK applications.

They are too different so I thought it's not new version of tspc but
rather a new package.

In fact, someone has intended to package gw6c
(http://bugs.debian.org/497476) but that package does not go into sid
for a while. In the meantime I decide to continue maintain tspc and keep
it in good shape since me and others still need it :)

Are the modifications to the tarball documented in the source package
somewhere?

 - The unpacked directory should better be named $package-$version, not

Only if the tarball has been repacked for other reasons.  Renaming the root
directory of a tarball is *not* sufficient reason to repack it.
