Bug#757176: RFS: xombrero/2:1.6.3-1 -- Minimalist's web browser
tags 757176 moreinfo
thanks
Hi Luis Henriques,
Please:
1. d/control, in package xxxterm:
- Change the section from oldlibs to web.
- Change priority extra to optional.
- In short description, remove the word 'rename'.
As long description, use only:
This is a transitional dummy package to xombrero. It can safely be removed.
The last change is to discourage the install of the xxxterm. So, the
text needs to be short and direct.
2. d/copyright: update all information, even the packaging years. In
the upstream code, you need to check file by file. Please, fix the
line that says "Copyright (c) 2013 David Hill <dhill@mindcry.org>".
3. I think that d/docs can be removed, because all relevant
information are in manpage.
4. In d/news, please, remove the header.
5. d/rules: remove useless lines '# debian/rules makefile that uses
debhelper.' and '# Uncomment this to turn on verbose mode.'.
6. d/rules: after the 'export DH_VERBOSE=1' line, put:
export DEB_LDFLAGS_MAINT_APPEND = -Wl,--as-needed
It will fix this situation:
dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: package could avoid a useless dependency if
debian/xombrero/usr/bin/xombrero was not linked against
libcairo-gobject.so.2 (it uses none of the library's symbols)
dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: package could avoid a useless dependency if
debian/xombrero/usr/bin/xombrero was not linked against libX11.so.6
(it uses none of the library's symbols)
dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: package could avoid a useless dependency if
debian/xombrero/usr/bin/xombrero was not linked against
libatk-1.0.so.0 (it uses none of the library's symbols)
dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: package could avoid a useless dependency if
debian/xombrero/usr/bin/xombrero was not linked against
libpangocairo-1.0.so.0 (it uses none of the library's symbols)
dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: package could avoid a useless dependency if
debian/xombrero/usr/bin/xombrero was not linked against libcairo.so.2
(it uses none of the library's symbols)
7. You have several bugs not treated[1]. Please, try to solve and
close some bugs. The bug #695874 is easy and mandatory to be closed by
your package.
Thanks for your work. I will wait you.
Cheers,
Eriberto
