Bug#496264: cuneiform_0.5+dfsg-1_i386.changes REJECTED

[Frank Lichtenheld <ftpmaster@debian.org>]

Hi.

Lets not further leave this package in limbo. The current situation is
as follows:

1) REJECT for missing copyright holders in debian/copyright. That should
   be easily fixable.

2) It would be interesting to know where those .dat files come from and
   whether there exists some kind of source for them. In the package itself
   I could not find any information about that.

3) The issue with the libraries. Their names are really too generic and
   they really aren't packaged as proper shared libraries, so you can't
   put them into /usr/lib. And I still don't see how this could cause any
   unsurmountable issues in other packages. If you insist that this problem
   can't be fixed quickly and provide a more elaborate explanation than
   "other packages want to depend on it" I would be willing to allow this package
   into the archive anyway (preferably into experimental), as long there is a
   RC bug documenting the issue.

Hope this helps to move the issue forward.

Gruesse,
	Frank
