Hello,
There are some things I do not like:
* The version number. If you are using "20040514" as version number
for the CVS version yo cannot upload 0.17 as "0.17" but you will
need to introduce an epoch. I'd suggest 0.16+20040514cvs
* Build-Depends: help2man (>=1.27), xlibs-dev (>=4.1.0), debhelper
(>=4.0.2), autoconf, automake
xlibs-dev is a meta package today and torsmo does not need all
components, afaics "libx11-dev | xlibs-dev (>=4.1.0)" should be
enough.
automake. "automake" is virtual package provided by automake1.4. - If
you are positive you need automake1.4 depend on the real package.
afaict the build-depency on "autoconf, automake" is unnecessary anyway,
it builds fine without these.
For my personalpreference it is too simplistic, I had hoped for a
xosview replacement.
