I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 3.3.1-1
of my package "ophcrack".

I'm not doing any additional sponsoring, but here is a review:
Hi! Thanks anyway.
Please forward the .desktop file and manual pages upstream if you
haven't already

The upstream README file includes information on downloading and
installing ophcrack, which is not relevant for Debian users. I'd
suggest asking upstream to split it out into README.install.
I'll ask them.
Upstream is using the ChangeLog file as a NEWS file, you might want to
point them at the GNU coding standards document:

http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#NEWS-File
http://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#Change-Logs

The upstream code lists the old FSF address in the license grant
information, you might want to ask them to fix that.
I'll ask them too.
./src/gui/histogram* are not under the GPL, instead they are under the
"Qwt License, Version 1.0". Please document the license and copyright
information for these in debian/copyright and ensure this license is
compatible with the GPL and OpenSSL licenses.
Good catch. Hopefully, Qwt is LGPL + a few exceptions to add rights. LGPL is fine with OpenSSL licence.
Statement added in debian/copyright.
Please run this: sed -i -e 's/in command line/on the command line/'
debian/control
Done.
You may also want to get the description reviewed by the
debian-l10n-english folks:

http://wiki.debian.org/I18n/SmithReviewProject

The package FTBFS on kFreeBSD, it looks like upstream's detection of
sysinfo availablility isn't complete, I'd suggest talking to the folks
on the debian-bsd list:

https://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?&pkg=ophcrack&ver=3.3.0-1&arch=kfreebsd-amd64&stamp=1255940210&file=log
https://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?&pkg=ophcrack&ver=3.3.0-1&arch=kfreebsd-i386&stamp=1255940682&file=log
Fixed as well.
You might want to adopt the debhelper 7 dh style rules file:

https://penta.debconf.org/dc9_schedule/events/418.en.html
http://manpages.debian.net/man/1/dh
I prefere keeping old dh style for now but the package has been updated to new dpkg-source format. I also fixed some other minor issues which now makes ophcrack lintian --pedantic clean ;-)


Any sponsor interrested ?
