The lintian explanation[1] says:

"The clean rule in debian/rules should remove this file.
[...]
Note that Lintian cannot reliably detect the removal in the clean rule, so 
once you fix this, please ignore or override this warning."

I also try not to touch anything outside debian/ directory since it will make 
lintian complain because there are patches too.

I'm not a dev, but if lintian's complaining, then probably not. If you
remove it manually, then won't it be removed by the diff when you make
the source package?

I'm already removing it in the clean target:

debian.rules:
clean::
rm -f config.status

Isn't that sufficient?

config.status is generated by configure, not autoconf, so you'll
probably find that you can take it out.

RFS: iguanair (try #2)

2009-06-07 Thread Stefanos Harhalakis
Dear mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my package "iguanair".

* Package name: iguanair
  Version : 0.99-1
  Upstream Author : IguanaWorks Inc.
* URL : http://iguanaworks.net/
* License : GPLv2 and LGPLv2
  Section : utils

It builds these binary packages:
iguanair   - IguanaWorks IR daemon/driver
iguanair-python - IguanaWorks IR python bindings
iguanair-reflasher - IguanaWorks IR reflasher utility
libiguanair - IguanaWorks IR support library
libiguanair-dev - IguanaWorks IR development files

This package adds support for the IR transceiver made by iguanaworks. They 
have pretty good support and are additional seem to be promoting opensource 
with their activities. This upload will also help resolve bug #524403.

The package appears to be lintian clean except from an the override of:

iguanair source: configure-generated-file-in-source config.status

I believe that the override is justified since the upstream tarball doesn't 
include a configure.in source and cannot be remade with auto-tools. 

The upload would fix these bugs: 529955

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/i/iguanair
- Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main 
contrib non-free
- dget 
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/i/iguanair/iguanair_0.99-1.dsc

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

Kind regards
Stefanos Harhalakis
