Hi Étienne,
Thank you for your feedback and guidance on the metaphlan packaging work. I have made note of the changes you made, including the corrections to the copyright file, the improvements to the changelog, and the lintian checks. I appreciate your help in improving these areas and explaining the reasons behind the changes.
I wanted to ask, after writing tests for a package, should we run dpkg-buildpackage and lintian to check the changes?
As we discussed, I have opened a pull request upstream for the patch:
https://github.com/biobakery/MetaPhlAn/pull/232
I have also updated the patch file to include the Forwarded field:
https://salsa.debian.org/med-team/metaphlan/-/commit/b6ddbbfe558e3993559584b7ba496eaacfdccaba
I will also keep an eye on the metaphlan package tracker to monitor the piuparts issue.
Thank you again for your support.
Best regards,
Harish
