A dead link, however > historical it may be, is fairly useless. I have to disagree with you here. The point of mentioning the source of a package in debian/copyright is to document it's origin. The original source URL can still be useful in combination with services such as The Wayback Machine[1]. [1]: http://www.archive.org/web/web.php I prepared a new package and uploaded it to mentors: lintian -IE --pedantic reports the following: P: cvsconnect: no-upstream-changelog (there is no upstream changelog) P: cvsconnect: no-homepage-field (removed because it's dead) Same locations as before: http://mentors.debian.net/package/cvsconnect dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/c/cvsconnect/cvsconnect_0.1.cvs20001202-2.dsc I hope someone can review/upload this package.
