Bug#703630: RFS: libaria/2.7.5.2-1 [ITP] -- C++ library for MobileRobots/ActivMedia robots



Hi Anton,

Thanks for the tip. I already handled a lot of warnings before the
first upload, and I'd like some advice about handling the rest of
them.

Starting from the source package:
- source-contains-prebuilt-binary:
I've read somewhere that this is not a reason for repackaging. What's
the procedure if I decide to repackage? Because there would be
significant space savings after all. But what I'd really like is to
get the upstream maintainer to release source only tarballs.

- debhelper-but-no-misc-depends for libaria-dev-doc:
As this is a documentation only package, I don't see the need for this.

libaria2 would liked to be hardened. This would be taken care of if I
added this lines at the top of the makefile:
DPKG_EXPORT_BUILDFLAGS = 1
include /usr/share/dpkg/buildflags.mk

?

- no-symbols-control-file:
Could I use shlibs system for my first package?

- spelling-error-in-binary:
Send a patch upstream?

Finally, the libaria-dev-doc package:
- duplicate-files:
I use the docs file to package the libaria-dev-doc. Html is doxygen
generated, in a directory containing some source pngs in a subdir,
hence the duplicate files. Can I somehow exclude the subdir containing
source pngs in the docs file?

- embedded-javascript-library:
The jquery library is introduced by doxygen.
