Usually, it is good to separate the RFS's according to package! Here
are some comments.
- description needs to be improved; e.g. do not mention gpl. can
it be used only as cgi? is it LaTeX only or does it support
plain TeX or other dialects.
- dependency on all of texlive is probably incorrect.
- bald GPL 3.0 is not a copyright assertion.
- license has been changed to GPL 3 or later while packaging!
- Makefile can be replaced by debian/rules
- manpage can be kept in debian/ since it has been added as part of debian packaging
- what is the difference between this and mimetex or texgd?
- add a debian/watch file (see man uscan)
Regards,
Kapil.
