Bug#753487: RFS: stda/1.3.1-1 -- new upstream release (package already in Debian)



[I don't indend to sponsor this package. Sorry!]

* Dimitar Ivanov <drimiks@freeshell.de>, 2014-07-09, 00:27:
* URL             : http://gnu.mirendom.net/stda.html
[snip]

There doesn't seem to be anything newer than 1.2.1 posted at that URL.

This is correct. The reason for this is that, since I'm the upstream author, first I'm trying to find a sponsor, or somebody who wants to review the package and could be a sponsor. Then I'll put the original tar on the URL. I just want this time that the upstream is released actually only if the package also will be put into Debian testing. If not, then I'll do not make a public release now, but in few months upgrade the package (bugs, new features, etc.) and try to find a sponsor again..

That's an odd workflow, if you ask me. But oh well. Here's my quick review:

+	sed -n '/BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE/,/END PGP SIGNATURE/p' \
+		$(PNAME)_$${dvers}_source.changes > $(PNAME)-$$vers.tar.gz.asc

I don't think you'll get a valid signature this way.

+  - default postscript canava set to landscape with size-ratio of 0.71

Typo? canava -> canvas

+  - CONVFMT and OFMT varibles in 'awk' defined separately as "%.17g"

Typo: varibles -> variables

+Remark: an user-defined function should have syntax conform to 'awk'.

Typos: an -> a, conform -> conforming

Changes to packaging are not documented in debian/changelog.
