This may be true, but it doesn't build :-/

Well, to start out in proper order, here's my review results:

- Please use DEP-5 format for debian/copyright and please make extra-sure you
  don't miss any copyright holders as the package seems to have quite a number
  of them. DEP-5 format will make this much easier to check.
- You probably want to add a Depends: on udev instead of merely recommending it
  in some README file.
- configure yields the following result:

  ...
  udev support:no
  ...
  I'm not sure this is intended.
- Your package fails to build from source:
ifdhandler.c: In function ‘IFDHControl’:
ifdhandler.c:1416:22: error: ‘FEATURE_MCT_READERDIRECT’ undeclared (first use 
in this function)
ifdhandler.c:1416:22: note: each undeclared identifier is reported only once 
for each function it appears in
make[3]: *** [libacsccid_la-ifdhandler.lo] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/home/tautschnig/debian/acsccid/acsccid-1.0.2/src'

Please get those fixed, then another more thorough package review will follow.

Best,
Michael

RFS: acsccid (Updated)

2011-06-22 Thread Godfrey Chung
Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "acsccid". Actually, I posted the 
request about 1 month ago and I did not receive any response here.

The package had been updated and fix the following problems:
1. The project is hosted in sourceforge now and watch file is updated.
2. Remove dh_makeshlibs from rules file.
3. Fix non-redistributable reference manual problem.

* Package name: acsccid
  Version : 1.0.2-1
  Upstream Author : Advanced Card Systems Ltd.
* URL : http://acsccid.sourceforge.net/
* License : LGPL-2.1
  Section : libs

It builds these binary packages:
libacsccid - PC/SC driver for ACS USB CCID smart card readers

The package appears to be lintian clean.

The upload would fix these bugs: 627038

My motivation for maintaining this package is:
This package contains the official PC/SC driver for ACS USB CCID smart card 
readers. Compared with libccid, it supports many latest readers from ACS. Users 
of these readers are required to install this driver.

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/a/acsccid
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main 
contrib non-free
- dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/a/acsccid/acsccid_1.0.2-1.dsc

This is my first package and I would be glad if someone reviewed and uploaded 
this package for me.

Kind regards
Godfrey Chung
