Re: [poke] RFS: xinetd



Hello,

i've done some changes basing on your notes.

I tried to be a bit more verbose on the changelog

Uhm right, sorry about that

> The line:

Fixed

Uhm true, done

> You should consider adding a watch file :)
I didn't think it was necessary since it looked like completely abandoned for 
years.. now someone new took over the developement so i guess a watch file is 
needed.
Added. (i haven't packaged yet the new version because it would take some time 
to repatch it and it doesn't seem there were any major changes).

> You should also consider DEP3 headers on 000007-CVE-2012-0862.patch
Added subject and submitter

Well i don't think changing a script's name is a good idea, there will 
probably be a few people upset about that!

>   etc/init.d/xinetd  <-- You should add LSB headers
They were there, the description was missing

>   usr/share/man/man5/xinetd.conf.5.gz <-- mispelling: avaliable available
done, and changed some - into \-

>   the manpage might nice to fix :)
Uhm i fail to understand what is this error about.

I tried to create a doc-base control file and install it and so on but i still 
get the warning.

Well i didn't know lintian could parse changes files too

Let me know about the patches.
I've uploaded the corrected version
http://galileo.dmi.unict.it/~ltworf/xinetd/xinetd_2.3.14-8~exp1.dsc

Thanks for the help.
