Bug#782847: endless-sky: uploaded
Hi!
I've became a DD today. Thus, as promised, I've just uploaded endless-sky
to Debian. It will spend some times in the "NEW" purgatory where the
ftpmasters review it.
There were two issues with what you uploaded to mentors.debian.net:
* the package was versioned 0.8.8-2 with no 0.8.8-1
* the copyright file didn't obey the special-casing for "public-domain"
The latter is partially my fault, I did not know the machine-readable
copyright format handles public-domain differently. According to
https://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/ :
# When the License field in a paragraph has the short name public-domain,
# the remaining lines of the field must explain exactly what exemption the
# corresponding files for that paragraph have from default copyright
# restrictions.
and indeed, unlike other licenses which must have exactly one definition,
public-domain needs further data in its every use.
I took the liberty to change both of these myself. If for some reason I did
something wrong (like, if you insist on 0.8.8-2 due to having 0.8.8-1 in
some other repository), please say so, there's plenty of time to
cancel/amend the upload before it clears NEW. I'm still learning myself...
I attached the debdiff, please apply it to your private copy of the
packaging so it's included in your next upload.
When there's a new version, there's no need to file a RFS, you can contact
me directly.
Meow!
