Re: ngp/0.1-1.0 [NMU]
Hallo Jonathan,
(first the usual disclaimer: I'm not a DD so I cannot sponsor.)
I only briefly look into the packaage , so this is only a brief review
mostly from the data available from m.d.n... Sorry, also on a hurry ..
I see those problems which should work on:
-> you need to file an ITP Bug against wnpp and you cannot have a NMU
with an initial upload.
-> you have lintian warnings in your package, please fix them
-> your debian/control lacks the homepage field
-> d/copyright is incomplete, you should read
http://dep.debian.net/deps/dep5/ as this format is strongly recommended.
-> d/README.source is still a template. Edit or remove.
-> d/README.Debian is probably not needed, or are there Debian
specilities?
-> as you are using autoconf and friends, you should also use
dh_autoreconf in your rules.
-> There is no source for "search.png". Is this image indeed needed?
-> debian/patches is empty and should be removed
-> debian/ngp.1 should be included upstream (as you are upstream this is
easy)
-> you need to have a watch file (if you release) or an get-orig-source
target in debian/rules to regenerate the tarball.
A personal opinion: "ngp" is a little short for a package / binary name,
as this kind of pollutes the namespace (and there is a ngp2 in the
archives). Maybe consider a more self-explaining name?
Best regards,
