It probably needs some rewording to not mention lintian (amongst other things), but it is very much appropriate to mention the upstream tarball situation in debian/watch. I personally would use something that looks at this location: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/gnome/sources/mobile-broadband-provider-info/ Really though, I'm not sure the packaging system is the correct way to distribute this data anyway, since you usually always want the latest version. We are stuck with it until upstream changes that though. Perhaps we need some update-usbids/update-pciids style mechanism in the meantime though. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".

Re: RFS: mobile-broadband-provider-info (updated package)
Howdy, folks, I've noticed (I've not dug in to find out if it's a function of my machine, but this seems to not be present on other packages I have, or have reviewed) that all the files are marked +x. You should consider wrapping the Uploaders field. You should also consider removing the watch file - it's an Info tag when it's missing, not a warning or error. Uscan exits with a nonzero return value when you run it, which I don't think is right. A DD might be able to jump in here.

We're polluting a global namespace with our package names and source package lists we generate. I noticed that a while ago, see [1]. That's an annoying thing and we should think about possible solutions. We could either keep things as they are and refuse people to upload packages which have been uploaded by someone else in the past or, alternatively, let people take over source packages someone else uploaded before. Frankly, neither alternative sounds particularly good. A clean solution would isolate anyone's packages, in a way different versions would live together.
