Bug#688873: nomacs in Debian



Hi!

How would you feel about having an official Debian package for nomacs in
the Debian and therefore, eventually Ubuntu archives?

I have opened an RFP (Request For Package) for that purpose in the
Debian BTS (Bug Tracking System), you can follow it here:

http://bugs.debian.org/688873

There are minimal changes required for the package to work in Debian,
according to lintian:

E: nomacs changes: bad-distribution-in-changes-file oneiric
W: nomacs source: native-package-with-dash-version
W: nomacs source: unknown-field-in-dsc original-maintainer
W: nomacs: hardening-no-relro usr/bin/nomacs
P: nomacs: no-upstream-changelog
W: nomacs: latest-debian-changelog-entry-without-new-version
P: nomacs: copyright-has-crs

As a Debian Developper, I would be to help in getting that package into
shape for inclusion in Debian. Unfortunately, it won't make it for the
next release, but we can aim for the one after that. Either way, it will
eventually trickle down into Ubuntu, which is also good. :)

Let me know.
