Bug#748613: RFS: gimagereader/2.93-1 [ITP]

[Eriberto Mota <eriberto@debian.org>]

Hi Philip,

In gimagereader, please:

1. Fix this Linitian message: desktop-entry-lacks-keywords-entry

2. Create a VCS to control your /debian versions. You can use github
or other. So, add the Vcs-Browser and Vcs-{Git|Svn|Cvs} to d/control.

3. d/control: please, in long description, put one or two lines
explaining what is tesseract. Use punctuation in phrases.

4. d/copyright:

     - Change from  '2009-2013, Canonical Ltd' to 'Copyright (C)
2009-2013 Canonical Ltd., by Robert Ancell
<robert.ancell@canonical.com>'.
     - Use GPL-3+ in debian/*. Your package is a derivative work and
GPL3 is incompatible with GPL2. [1]
     - You need write the license using the FSF rules [2]. An example here[3].


[1] http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-faq.html#v2v3Compatibility
[2] http://www.gnu.org/licenses/gpl-howto.html
[3] http://metadata.ftp-master.debian.org/changelogs/main/g/gconjugue/unstable_copyright

5. d/docs: you must install the documents that are useful to final
users. So, remove AUTHORS. It must be put in d/copyright only.

6. d/rules:
    - Comment the verbose line.
    - Add 'export V=1' to show all compiler flags. If you want read
about it, $ man blhc.

The lintian shows a message about hardening. But, for the first time
in my life, i think that it is a false positive. The flags are in
Makefile and 'blhc --all' doesn't show warnings.

7. d/watch: to allow downloads, point to 'releases' instead 'tags'.

Thanks for your work.

Cheers,

Eriberto
