Request for review: saods9, libstarlink-ast
Dear Mentors,
after a few months, I finished the (re-)packaging of the "saods9" package:
* Package name : saods9
Version : 6.2+dfsg-1
Upstream Author : William Joye <wjoye@cfa.harvard.edu>
* URL : http://hea-www.harvard.edu/RD/ds9/
* License : GPLv2+
Section : science
It builds those binary packages:
saods9 - Image display tool for astronomy
saods9-blt - BLT subpackage for saods9
saods9-data - Image display tool for astronomy (shared data)
saods9-doc - Image display tool for astronomy (documentation)
To access further information about this package, please visit the
following URL: <http://mentors.debian.net/package/saods9>
Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command:
dget -x
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/saods9/saods9_6.2+dfsg-1.dsc
To build, it needs the package "starlink-pal", which can be retrieved
from mentors as well: <http://mentors.debian.net/package/starlink-pal>
resp.
<http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/s/starlink-ast/starlink-ast_7.0.3+dfsg-1.dsc>
The saods9 package contains one of the most commonly used tools for
astronomers, and I would like to get into Debian before it freezes for
Wheezy. The saods9 package itself is quite complicated (many third-party
sources).
Since my sponsor is probably still on vacation, I would like to get some
review before he returns so that I can already fix things now. So, I
would not need a sponsor yet, but I would very much appreciate a review.
Best regards
Ole
