Bug#712799: RFS: ctesf/1.0-1 ITP

[tglman <tglman@tglman.com>]

Hi Jakub,

I understand your point of view and I knew that are already there many 
C/C++ testing framework,
the difference to the other framework is the binary of tests are shared 
library and not executable,
and the "test runner" have built in raw memory leak detector that allow 
to have a leak report per test.

anyway one of the main reasons because i want publish this package is 
that is used in other software that i want to package
early like: https://github.com/tglman/orientdb-c

about the origin package i extract it from the git repository with "git 
archive" this is the 
branch:http://sourceforge.net/p/testframework/ctesf/code/ci/debian/tree/,

this is my first debian package so probably I'm doing it wrong!!

about the Lintian errors I just verified that when i did the "debuild -S 
-sa" i will not get errors, and i thought was enough, so i'm going to 
read more about lintian ;)

I can understand if you don't want accept this package, but i'm looking 
for package also other software(maybe more interesting), so can you give 
me a feedback about
the mistakes in this package in such way i can avoid it in the next!
