I really like cpufreq-info -f ;)

o why not libcpufreq0-dev as suggested at
http://www.netfort.gr.jp/~dancer/column/libpkg-guide/libpkg-guide.html
At least with libcpufreq1 you will need something like libcpufreq1-dev
otherwise one can't build pkg depending on libcpufreq0 interface anymore
o AUTHOR, NEWS file isn't included. Btw. AUTHOR file and upstream in
debian/copyright do not match. You are too humble ;)
o -dev pkg should depend on the libcpufreq0 (= ${Source-Version})
o just wondering: tarball comes precompiled .mo files. Are they
cpu architecture independent?
o cpufreq.h is GPL 'V2 or later' no only GPL V2. Is just
'Licensed under the terms of the GNU GPL License version 2' in .c
files enough?
thx for pkging!

To me vi is Zen. To use vi is to practice zen. Every command is
a koan. Profound to the user, unintelligible to the uninitiated.
You discover truth everytime you use it.
