Bug#706514: RFS: dcraw/9.17-1
Hi Anton, thanks for the quick reply. You are right: I should have asked the maintainers before. My apologies. I needed the package for myself, and then figured why not learn how to upload? I'm not surprised that the packaging is old. I basically just took the last package und stuffed in the new upstream code. I can try to improve it a little, but let's hear what Steve says first. Thanks, Oliver Am 01.05.2013 17:55, schrieb Anton Gladky: Hi Oliver, thanks for providing the new version of the package! But to do such uploads you should be or (co)maintainer of the package or at least to get a permission from the current maintainer (CC-ing him), as the package has not been orphaned.

Bug#706510: RFS: xbomb/2.2a-8 [ITA] -- 'minesweeper' game with squares, hexagons or triangles
Hi Alexandre, thanks for adopting the package. I did not look into the package precisely, sorry, but there are a couple of notes. 1) It seems, you have taken the version 2.1a-7.1 as the base, but in unstable the version 2.2a-1 is available and there are a lot of "packaging" changes there. 2) Do not change the license of debian/* files, because "legally" you need to get a permission from all people, contributed there to do that. 3) Use VCS 4) Try to use autoreconf.

Bug#706509: RFS: zatacka/0.1.8-3 [ITA] -- Arcade multiplayer game like nibbles
Hi Alexandre, thanks for adopting the package! It looks fine, but I have 2 minor notes due to the packaging: 1) You are using dh 9, but there are no notice in the changelog. 2) Use VCS for package maintainance. 3) Optionally you can try to use dh-autoreconf ( --with autoreconf), but it is up to you. Also you are targeting the package into unstable, but the Wheezy is not yet released. Let's wait some days till it happens.

Bug#706361: gti review
Dear Felix, Thanks for packaging this funny software. :) Isn't the animation is a little too fast? I can hardly recognise the animated car and it's certainly moves faster than animated train in `sl`. I had a look at your package and I'd like to share some suggestions with you: There is unnecessary lintian-override for "no-upstream-changelog". Please remove it. It may be a reminder to generate upstream changelog if you're producing orig.tar from checkout. By the way why you didn't forward man page upstream yet? Package version looks a little bit unconventional. Although it's not a problem I would suggest to use just version "1.0.4-1" and backport patches from unreleased upstream commits if necessary. If you don't want to use upstream tarball releases as is then please provide get-orig-source target in debian/rules to generate upstream tarball from checkout. Perhaps the easiest solution would be to use upstream tarball as is. ## debian/watch As it is debian/watch could be fine for package version "1.0.4-1". However it is broken for version "1.0.4+git.20130416.8b0819d-1" which requires "dversionmangle". Otherwise `uscan` can't download orig.tar. ## debian/rules debian/rules contains unnecessary comments (dm-make template remnants?) -- please consider removing 'em. Also you might add override_dh_builddeb: dh_builddeb -- -Zxz To save some space you might want to compress .deb file with xz instead of gz. To use xz compression for Debian source you can also add compression = "xz" to debian/source/options. ## debian/copyright License name "MIT" is incorrect even though upstream may refer to this license as such. "MIT" is considered ambiguous by the Free Software Foundation. copyright-format-1.0 specification recommends to label newer MIT license as "Expat" however this is an older variant so it would be better called "MIT-old-style" or similar. See http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MIT_License ## debian/control Priority "extra" is probably better changed to "optional" as per http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s-f-Priority IMHO "Suggests: sl" is incorrect because it suggests unrelated package. I would replace it with "Enhances: git". Versioned build-depends on "dpkg-dev (>= 1.16.1~)" is unnecessary and may be completely dropped. ## Patches Please follow Patch Tagging Guidelines: http://dep.debian.net/deps/dep3/ Specifically I think it is a good practice to maintain "Forwarded" and "Last-Update" headers. Perhaps it would be Forwarded: non-needed for fix-makefile-do-not-strip-symbols.patch fix-makefile-installation-path.patch "fix-makefile-add-dpkg-buildflags.patch" it is done wrong. I would rename it and modify to respect build flags but without including file provided my dpkg. This way your improvement will be usable for upstream and will have to be forwarded. debhelper 9 in compat 9 mode automatically export build flags which makes unnecessary to include "/usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk" or set "DPKG_EXPORT_BUILDFLAGS" as we used to do with dh 8 to import hardening flags.
