lintian errors/warnings on ddpo-by-mail emails
Hi all,
Most of those reading this email probably already know about it: I'm taking
over ddpo-by-mail. And so I decided to include the number of lintian errors
and warnings on the generated emails, but those not being a reason for the
message to be sent (i.e. it requires that an RC bug exists, the package has
no yet migrated, etc, for the email to be sent.)
But since I don't want the email to be too noisy, what do others think about
it?
A sample is:
To: foo <bar@moo.tld>
X-Debian: ddpomail
Subject: Possible problems in your Debian packages
=== libactivesupport-ruby:
= No migration to testing for 181 days.
See
<http://release.debian.org/migration/testing.pl?package=libactivesupport-ruby>
= Lintian reports 3 warning(s), you should consider fixing them.
See
http://lintian.debian.org/maintainer/acr-debian@athenacr.com.html#libactivesupport-ruby
=== libflexmock-ruby:
= Lintian reports 3 warning(s), you should consider fixing them.
See
http://lintian.debian.org/maintainer/acr-debian@athenacr.com.html#libflexmock-ruby
=== libtzinfo-ruby:
= 1 bug(s) that should be fixed for the next Debian release:
- #503591 <http://bugs.debian.org/503591>
Please don't include yet another copy of tzdata in the archive
= Not in testing for 182 days.
See
<http://release.debian.org/migration/testing.pl?package=libtzinfo-ruby>
= Lintian reports 6 warning(s), you should consider fixing them.
See
http://lintian.debian.org/maintainer/acr-debian@athenacr.com.html#libtzinfo-ruby
=== Packages with a new upstream version according to DEHS:
libflexmock-ruby 0.8.6 (Debian: 0.8.5-1)
libtzinfo-ruby 0.3.13 (Debian: 0.3.12-1)
Would it be ok to leave it that way? or only mention lintian errors? or only
when the same package has serious issues? or only when the same package
does *not* have any serious issue? or any combination of those? or should
lintian stuff be kept out of these emails?
Please take a couple of minutes and give your personal opinion.
Oh, and do it soon, since I'd like to send the first round before the next
week-end.
Cheers,
