It's still a QA-Upload they way you writing it in d/changelog but you are adopting. Write: cruft (0.9.18) unstable; urgency=medium * New Maintainer (Closes: #763888) * Overhaul ruleset for recent kernels & systemd (...) * Closes: #702853 : explain cgroups,devtmpfs and other special fs * Bump DebHelper compat from 5 to 9 (note the line removed in the last section) > > > -> Set yourself as Maintainer in d/control (and remove the likely > > inactive Uplpoader; he can be added in case of again) > Ok See previous mail with the lintian error. > > > > I already solved 3 bugs, they will be automaticaly closed by the amended changelog. > > Thats the way to go.

If they already closed by a previous, the approach is different: Manually close them by sending a mail to xxxxxx-done@bugs.debian.org and noteing with the Fixed command (see https://www.debian.org/Bugs/server-control#fixed ) Do not close bugs in the changelog when it not the new version that fixes it! > > (cruft-ng) > > Just one remark: Depends should be only used when > > appropriate -- refer to Policy §7.2 -- so only if cruft-ng requires > > cruft to operate) > It does well requires all the _rules_ from the explain/ & filters-unex/ > directories.

Good idea, and thats not so much work to do it, if you just need to copy files into a different package. (dsclaimer: i didn't check if my claim is right in this case). But lets keep that on the TODO for the moment, and talk about that when introducing cruft-ng, as there is no need before that. > Though, this is much work; I guess that people willing to rewrite > cruft could also just do a "git clone ; cd ; make" to try it out. > > -> d/dirs *might* not be needed, as debhelper will create the dirs for > > you usually.

As said, if you are quick, I will upload today. (Otherwise after my VAC.) -- tobi
