Bug#804100: RFS: rhythmbox-plugin-alternative-toolbar/0.14.0-1~debian [ITP]
Hi,
>I've never heard of pyflakes and pyflakes3 - so thanks for introducing me to these tools. I've run these and they no longer throw errors out.
wonderful
>I've run your PEP8 command. The vast majority of the PEP8 issues have now been addressed. For some reason it is picking out whitespace issues with documentation >comments.
well, they are many false positive in the above tools :)
>There are one-or-two slightly too long PEP8 lines left. I've left these since the readability is important.
sure, not a problem at all
>The find statement is worrying me. All the translations have been exported directly from launchpad.net where the application is actually translated by the >wonderful launchpad translation team. I dont really have any control as to the output from launchpad.
fine then :)
>Is there a way to "cleanup" these translation po's ? A quick google didnt reveal much.
I guess not, maybe poedit fills the files when updating, but I don't know about another way, you can leave them
>With regards to the source package - I've introduced a cleanup script on the git project called "debian_cleanup.sh" - this removes the .git folder, .idea folder, >the install.sh and the tar.gz file you asked me to remove.
sorry but I fail to understand what is the problem in using the git tag tarball
https://github.com/fossfreedom/alternative-toolbar/releases/tag/v0.14.1
when you tag github automagically creates a tarball for you.
I don't care about saving 10k tarball, I care about you not being forced to create a new tarball each release, and letting github do its job
(and watch file getting the correct tarball with "uscan")
maybe you need to repack the source because the github tarball is missing something, I don't know, but I would like to see you using it if possible
>I have run this script before running dh_make --createorig and debuild
this is fine, but difficult to maintain, and useless when github does a good job in tarball creation
>The other debian package issues have been addressed (I think).
I still see priority: extra instead of optional, and a really really little package Description :)

You close bugs by mentioning them in changelog with the "#" char.
e.g.
Initial release. (Closes: #804192)
the Closes: #XXXX is for Debian bugs, while
LP: #YYYY is for Ubuntu bugs.
(some magic detects the syntax in the changelog and sends a close to the bug automagically)
