Bug#705257: RFS: bittwist/2.0-1 -- libpcap based Ethernet packet generator

[Eriberto <eriberto@eriberto.pro.br>]

Anton, thanks a lot by upload.

I used debhelper 8 because the dh_make template created debian/compat -> 8 and I thought it was the current. Sorry.

I removed the Vcs because my old SVN server was disabled and I lost the data. Thus I will migrate to GIT soon, but I need to learn it.

I kept the comments in debian/rules as an respect to copyright. But I will remove it in future.

I don't known about --parallel.

Thanks for the orientations too! I will fix another package (pcapfix) in mentors now, following your considerations.

Regards,

Eriberto - Brazil

Hi Eriberto,

considering the relatively long list of the packages, which you
maintain, I sponsored that without asking to fix some minor issues.

But for the future uploads, could you:

1) Use debhelper 9
2) Use VCS for package maintainance
3) Remove comments in debian/rules
4) Add --parallel option to dh (optionally).

Thank you,

Anton
