here we go...

a general note first: some of the orig.tar.gz do not match the ones
available on ftp.debian.org, please make always sure those have the same
md5/sha1 hashes.

ruby-pkg-tools:

  * the package is a native package, but you build a non-native one.
    please revert.

  * you changelog is strange:

    - normally, you write something like '* Rebuild for sarge.'
      or similar, but not '* Creating changelog entry to set version and
      release for backport.'

    - the bottom line of a changelog entry should be:
      '-- $name <$email> $date' and not '-- <$email> $date'.

the rest of this package is fine.

rake is fine, except for the changelog (same things as with ruby-pkg-tools).

librmagick-ruby:

  * same as with changelog of ruby-pkg-tools.

  * additionally you /replaced/ the previous changelog entry in the
    package, instead of adding your own new one on top of it.

  * a minor tipp about style: if you change a build-dependency,
    i would keep it in the same 'style' as it was before.
    here, you lower 'cdbs (>= 0.4.33)' to 'cdbs (>= 0.4.28-1)'.
    i would have lowered it to 'cdbs (>= 0.4.28)'. note that both is
    practically the same here, it's just a matter of taste.

the rest of this package is fine.

libpgsql-ruby is fine, except for the changelog (same things as with
ruby-pkg-tools).

libgems-ruby is fine, except for the changelog (same things as with
ruby-pkg-tools).


if you change the things mentioned above in your packages, i'm uploading
them for you.
