Bug#777500: RFS: birdie/1.1-1 [ITP]

[Kay Abendroth <kay.abendroth@raxion.net>]

Hello,

these are my questions regarding your feedback. Question 1 to 4 refer to
http://mentors.debian.net/package/birdie.

1. Warning "Package uploaded for the unreleased distribution":

   How do I fix that? Right now I'm using Jessie on my laptop already.
Can I tell the build tool to build it for Wheezy?

2. Lintian warning "no-upstream-changelog":

   Upstream version 1.1 doesn't provide a Changelog. Can I overwrite
this warning?

3. Warning ""Maintainer" email is the same as the uploader":

   Why is this a warning? How do I fix it?

4. Warning "Package is not native":

   What does that mean and how do I fix it?

5. Your comment "the files in the dir cmake are not documented":

   I guess you mean the files from upstream. There is no more
documentation provided by upstream. I use the package "as is."

6. Your comment "did not try: are the icons regnerated at build time?
There is also an oddity: icons/128x128/apps has the svg in it, also
other dirs have the svg":

   I didn't understand what you mean. How do I check the "regeneration"?
What do you mean with the icon-oddity?

7. Regarding the VCS-field:

  I'd gladly maintain the package via Git for example. Is there a naming
convention for the repository I can follow? I could imagine naming it
'debian-package-birdie'.


Regards,
Kay
