Bug#208692: ITP: picprog -- Microchip PIC microcontroller programmer software
Hello Jan, About your package of picprog I found here: http://www.janw.easynet.be/picprog/i386/ It's good to mention the homepage in the description in debian/control, and how you did it is almost perfect. How it should be done: http://www.us.debian.org/doc/developers-reference/ch-best-pkging-practices.en.html#s-bpp-upstream-info The debian/changelog has multiple entries. I'm not sure whether that's OK for an initial version to be uploaded in Debian. I would add Closes: #208692 in the debian/changelog to close your ITP bug report. I see that your package depends on libstdc++6-dev which pulls in gcc-3.4 and it's friends. Does libstdc++6-4.0-dev work for your package ? I have not tested your package.

How it should be done: http://www.us.debian.org/doc/developers-reference/ch-best-pkging-practices.en.html#s-bpp-upstream-info OK, I see, thanks for the information.

I would add Closes: #208692 in the debian/changelog to close your ITP bug report. Great! It would be nice to see picprog uploaded in Debian. I see that your package depends on libstdc++6-dev which pulls in gcc-3.4 and it's friends. Does libstdc++6-4.0-dev work for your package ? I have created a new package (picprog_1.8.1-2_i386.deb) which depends on libstdc++6-4.0-dev and fixes the Homepage-issue.

URL:http://www.iki.fi/hyvatti/pic/picprog.html English nit: a simple serial port device, not the simple serial port device. But I'd like to ask - could you add the word serial to the short description? Say, Description : Microchip PIC microcontroller serial programmer or Description : Microchip PIC serial programmer software ? I ask because there's a well-known linux (x86 only, sadly) _parallel_ port PIC programmer called picprg. (Among other things, picprg is the way to get parallel port DonTronics PIC programmers to work in linux) Hmm... picprg has not yet been packaged for Debian, and I already maintain a different x86-specific parallel port bit-banging program...
