Greetings! Encouraged by the success of my earlier mass-filing, I continued my crusade to piss off several people. Thus, I wrote small script to check for missing pointers to licenses in debian/copyright, superfluous README.Debians (which consist only of information that should have been in debian/copyright, according to policy). The script also checks if the package builds using binary-arch, while being Architecture: all. This time, it was launched over the lib*-perl packages, some 45Mb of sources. The binary-arch Vs Architecture: all thing is probably serious, since it is a policy violation (see my earlier mail for an explanation). The README.Debian thing -- wishlist, and the missing pointer is probably important. If there is no great noise against this action, I'll start filing tomorrow (altogether, I believe there'll be ~350 individual reports. Less, if I submit all three kinds of problems in one report). Finally, let the list of affected packages stand here, as before, categorised by the type of bug (listing source packages): Missing pointer in debian/copyright ===================================

These will be taken care of, together with the false positives (if any). -- Gergely Nagy
