Could someone please review my thousand parsec packages on mentors?
Upstream is begging me to get packages out there. I sent this to the
games team a while back but received no response so I'm hoping someone
on mentors will take pity on me. :-)
Do you know tool called lintian?
Know it well unfortunately.

$ lintian -I libtpproto-py_0.2.2-1_i386.changes

- Some description what Thousand Parsec is in description would be nice.
- "Work in progress.." in changelog?
- No need to byte compile python modules, use --no-compile
It is a "work in progress" because I was asked by someone else to
package these up. I have it tagged that way in the Games team SVN. I
will add better descriptions and --no-compile, thanks.

UNRELEASED
It's UNRELEASED because that is how we keep them in the games team SVN
until they are tagged for release and I knew there were issues with the
package.
W: tpclient-pywx: new-package-should-close-itp-bug
There are several packages to one RFP, how do I handle that
appropriately? There is no 1 single package that would give a Thousand
Parsec client.
- XS-Python-Version and debian/version IMHO should not be different
- debian/dirs is not needed
Gah, I thought I had removed the dirs files. I'll look at the
XS-Python-Version issue. I'm also aware of all of the scripts not
executable issues. I need to fix those.
On of the big things I need to know about are the copyright files.
Upstream doesn't specify any years for Copyright that I can find.
Didn't get to copyright files at all for now ;-).
Thanks for looking at this.
