Bug#723582: Bug#724324: RFS: metar/0.2-1 ITP



The other question might be if this new package is really required because both seem to do the same thing...
Fernando, you're the upstream author, you might want to join forces with the other author.

Hallo Fernando,

please do not open new bug when you upload a new (not-uploaded) version
to mentors, just reply to your old bug. (I merged both bugs)
There, you should describe what you changed since the last update.

Ok, lets take a look.

--> Package name metar is already taken. You'll need a differnt one.
http://packages.qa.debian.org/m/metar.html

--> Check your linitian warnings before uploading.
Because you created a native package, which is not what you want.
See the linitan messges (W) native-package-with-dash-version and
(I) missing-debian-source-format

--> (W) binary-without-manpage /usr/bin/metar does not have a manpage.
--> please fix (I) mdescription-synopsis-might-not-be-phrased-properly

--> As you are upstream, please add upstream a changelog.

--> please add a dep5-style debian/copyright file.

--> I'd suggest debian/compat 9 not 8 (and build-depend on debhelper >
9)

--> before uploading, you should update the timestamp in your changelog.
(dch -r)

--> There's a warning: package metar: unused substitution variable
${perl:Depends} --- You need to depend in your binary package on
${perl:Depends} not just on perl, I think

Best regards,
