FWIW, being the one who originally packaged the zeromq and zeromq3 packages, the reason why I kept them separate was that some of the reverse dependencies of libzmq-dev did not build with the newer version, so both had to be kept in the archive. Otherwise I would have just renamed libzmq1 to libzmq3 and kept the same -dev, -dbg and source package names. > > * The README.source doesn't really provide any useful information, so it can > > be removed (also, since the dh-autoreconf plugin is used, the tarball > > generated from GitHub would probably work as well). > > I added it since there is a discrepancy between the tarballs on the > official website and Github, and to explain it. > > If it is all right with you, I would rather keep using the tarball from > the website Yeah, that's fine. My point was that you don't really need to justify why you used one tarball instead of the other, so the README.source file is useless (the debian/watch file already tells people where the tarball comes from). > > * No need to override the debian-watch-may-check-gpg-signature lintian warning > > (but it's not a problem if you want to do it anyway...). > > It was giving a warning on the Mentors upload page, so I added it.
