hi all, i finally have re-uploaded the new version of Gem, this time with hopefully all the lintian warnings fixed, but one (see below).

(see the other posts in this thread for a better explanation) > W: gem: menu-command-not-in-package /usr/share/menu/gem:5 /usr/bin/pd ok, fixed this by creating a tiny wrapper script /usr/bin/pd-gem which is called from the menu. this seemed to be simplest, with dh_fixperms fixing the permissions in /usr/share/gem/ and then having lintian complain about a script-not-being-executable. added manpage for the script as well. > W: gem: wrong-name-for-upstream-changelog usr/share/doc/gem/ChangeLog.gz fixed. > W: gem: debian-changelog-line-too-long line 5 fixed. > > these are the remaining lintian warnings i get with pedantic/experimental: > P: gem source: direct-changes-in-diff-but-no-patch-system gem-0.92-1.tar.gz.cdbs-config_list hmm, cdbs creates this file automatically; do i have to take extra action to remove it? > X: gem: spelling-error-in-binary ./usr/lib/pd/extra/Gem/Gem.pd_linux treshold threshold hmm, cannot really change this, as fixing the spelling mistakes would break the API of the plugin so long - hope to hear from you. fgamsdr IOhannes
