Re: RFS: evilwm/1.1.0-1 [ITA]



Hi Mateusz,

thanks for updating the package. But I have a couple of questions/notes:

1) Do not edit the old changelog-entries, even there are some mistakes.
2) You listed yourself as a maintainer instead of an old one, but the
package was not orphaned. Did you coordinate that?
3) Why do you use an old 3.9.2 Standards-Version instead of 3.9.4?
4) Do not target an upload into "unstable" during a freeze period. Use
experimental instead.
5) Remove BD on quilt and look at another lintian-warnings.
6) postinst and prerm scripts are removed, but it is not indicated in
changelog.
7) Use dh 9 for simplifying debian/rules
8) Use VCS for maintaining the package (Alioth-services are preferable).
9) Use DEP-5 for copyright-file

In attachment, please, see my version of debian/rules (control and
compat files are also changed).

Thanks for contribution!

Anton
