Hello I am sergio from argentina and i need a sponsor
for tmsnc http://tmsnc.sourceforge.net and I attach the debian'files needed for building

argl.

Don't send attachments to the list. This annoys almost anyone subscribed to the list. Instead build the binary and source packages, upload them somewhere (if you don't have a suitable location yourself, mentors.debian.net is made just for this purpose). Then post the URL to get to your package from whatever location you uploaded it to.

Apart from that:

debian/changelog:
It's "initial release", not "release initial"

Also, it's not a native package, so the release should be 0.1.4-1 or similar. Also don't forget to move/copy/link the original source archive to tmsnc.

The Standard-Version in debian/control is wrong. That shouldn't be the version of your package, but the version of debian standards it complies to (3.6.1.1 is current IIRC).

Check your package with linda&lintian:

linda -i tmsnc_<version>_<architecture>.changes
lintian -i tmsnc_<version>_<architecture>.changes

And fix the issues they report.

Read http://www.debian.org/devel/join/newmaint and http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/developers-reference/
