Bug#808141: sponsorship-requests: Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for my package eclipse-titan.



Hi,

just a quick report on my progress...

2015-12-17 18:18 GMT+01:00 Mattia Rizzolo <mattia@debian.org>:

Ok, first, a question: do you do your debian packaging in git?

I'm cloning form a git repository, then clean up everything which is git related. Why do you ask? Is there a problem with that?
 

And, here is a review:

* trailing whitespace on the changelog line.
 
FIXED
 
* maybe you're happy to discover tools like `wrap-and-sort`, to wrap the
  Build-Depends and Depends line (and sort other stuff, and removing
  trailing whitespaces in some other files)
 
Thank you for the hint, it's a really useful tool. ;)
 
* please don't cp files that way in d/rules, I find that ugly. instead,
  use a debian/eclipse-titan.install file.  See dh_install(1) for more
  info.  On a related note, I prefer using $(CURDIR) instead of $$(pwd)
  + this will also make debian/eclipse-titan.dirs useless
  + if you need to rename files dh-exec can help you a bit, if you want

FIXED
 
* during the compilation there are several errors like
    ./TTCN3.hh:58:39: fatal error: RT1/TitanLoggerApiSimple.hh: No such file or directory
  is this to be expected & ok?

It's expected and it's OK.
 
* is there a way to have a more verbose build, showing all the command
  line?

Added --verbose to debian/rules, I hope it'll help.
 
* you told me that you could get it to build with hardening-wrapper,
  well, to me it doesn't (see below) :)

Working on it, currently I don't know what is the reason of this. :/
 
* can you enable parallel building? (see debhelper(7))

DONE
 
* debian/copyright is totally inadequate.
  + personally I won't be totally happy without a copyright following
    copyright-format 1.0
  + anyway, please pick a random package from the archive and try having
    a look at what a copyright file normally looks like.

Will do after the hardening issue is resolved.
 
I move forward a little bit slow because I had a lot to do in these days but now I can work on this almost full time, so I'll back to you soon with all these corrections done I hope. ;)

Happy New Year
Gergely Pilisi
