Hello Sławomir,

Hopefully the following reviews are useful; let me know when addressed.
Please note I haven't tried to build anything yet.


Sorry I haven't noticed notification about this email and I did read it
only a few days ago, also had less time recently. Thanks for the review,
it's very helpful I don't know why I've missed so many things.


Sometimes I wonder if that rooftop scene in the movie The Matrix, where
they say "everyone falls their first time" is actually about Debian
packaging :-p  Truly, no worries, this happens to everyone!

Re: "notification about this email" are you subscribed to
debian-emacsen@lists.debian.org ?  Since you're using GMail it might be
necessary to create a server-side filter (using the webmail interface)
to insure that email from this list ends up in the Inbox.  By default it
sometimes puts mail in Promotions, or Social, or Forums, or even Spam.
It's also worth checking if you're affected by GMails aggressive
unlabelling of random messages (eg: archiving mail on delivery, which
all but guaranties you won't see it).

P.S. In case it wasn't clear, when I wrote "on list" at your scala-mode
bug I meant the debian-emacsen list and not the bug email address.


Cheers,
Nicholas


:) Yeah, I have one gmail filter for all debian mailing lists that skips the inbox but I'm checking mails frequently in thunderbird which notifies me about emails from most folders/labels, also I'm subscribed to one or two other lists and some issues so I will have to tweak my gmail filter config.

Sorry if some/all of my emails are not respecting 80 line limit length, I'm using Thunderbird and it's working randomly for this. Sometimes is ok(for example here: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=766441) but often on mailing list it doesn't seem to work. Eventually I will figure it out.

Btw I've replied to your review in the scala-mode bug(fixed most of your review comments, asked for the things I wasn't sure).

Cheers,
Sławomir
