Hi Markus, > I had a look at opensurge and surgescript and found some things which we > need to fix before it can be uploaded but in general I believe both > packages are suitable for Debian and I would really like to see them in > the archive. Perfect, let's fix it. :) > surgescript: > > d/control: I believe the section should be games instead of graphics.

(Closes: #xxxxxx) My first question: This "surgescript"[1] package is in Debian in an earlier version (0.5.4-1). Isn't it a problem to leave just that line? [1] https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/surgescript > At the moment there is only surgescript but shouldn't we split the > package into libsurgescript and libsurgescript-dev because it is > basically a C library?

I can make a patch to correct the path of this library. Can you tell me which way is right for this library? And I am sending our conversation with copies to the upstream (Alexandre Martins) of this software to make future improvements. > opensurge: > > There are a couple of build-dependencies missing which prevents building > opensurge from source in a clean environment.

If it is not a problem for you, but you can change the icon added in the "opensurge" to this icon found in the software.[2] [2] https://salsa.debian.org/games-team/opensurge/blob/master/src/misc/opensurge.png Thanks! -- ⢀⣴⠾⠻⢶⣦⠀ Carlos Donizete Froes [a.k.a coringao] ⣾⠁⢠⠒⠀⣿⡁ Debian Wiki: https://wiki.debian.org/coringao ⢿⡄⠘⠷⠚⠋⠀ GPG: 4096R/B638B780 ⠈⠳⣄⠀⠀⠀ 2157 630B D441 A775 BEFF D35F FA63 ADA6 B638 B780
