I am interested in sponsoring this package, however:
[nion@noname:tmp$] dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/d/dragbox/dragbox_0.2.5-2.dsc

dpkg-source: error: file dragbox_0.2.5.orig.tar.gz has size 87193 instead of expected 87189
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Please fix.
I just had a quick look at the diff and saw the following in the long description:
"For detailed command line instructions, please read the
included man page."
Please remove this as every package in Debian should have a man page by policy.
The menu file:
?package(dragbox):needs="X11" section="Apps/Tools"\
Apps/Tools does no longer fit the menu policy, see
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2007/07/msg00000.html
The changelog:
* Added debian menu entry
* Closes bug#452982
This is really no appropriate changelog entry, see
http://www.debian.org/doc/developers-reference/ch-best-pkging-practices.en.html#s-bpp-changelog-do
Kind regards
Nico
