Bug#751534: Re: Bug#751534: RFS: crunch/3.6-1 [ITP] -- tool for creating wordlist



Hello Jakub Wilk,

>Section: misc

>Perhaps it should be “Section: text”?

I believe that does not fit the description of the Text section https://packages.debian.org/unstable/.
Next: Utilities to format and print text documents.
As the crunch creates lists of words and does not format or print text documents believe that would not fit in the text section.

I now switched to wordlists.

>Probably should be s/unicode/Unicode/.

I now switched to Unicode.

I made a mistake in the description of fix_manpage patch.

I had put the description based on lintian error that is generated in the absence of the backslash:

I: Crunch: hyphen-used-as-minus-sign usr/share/man/man1/crunch.1.gz: 75

I changed the description to:

Description: Added backslash before the hyphen option -s at line 75

Yes, i meant "Remove sudo from the makefile", i changed the description to:

Description: Remove sudo from the makefile, fix permissions charset.lst
             file and prevents the installation file COPYNG.

I tried to contact the upstream, but got no answer.

>fix permissions charset.lst file

>permission fixes, too.

I'll try to contact the upstream again. 

>prevents the installation file COPYNG.

I changed COPYNG to COPYING.

It is necessary to exclude the portion of the patch responsible for preventing the installation of COPYING and make using the debian rules?

>Have you forwarded debian/patches/fix_sourcecode upstream?
>“fix_spelling” might be a better name for this than “fix_sourcecode”.

I changed the name of the patch to fix_spelling.

Not possible identify the name of first author. 
The email mimayin@aciiid.ath.cx not exist.
Then as we could not identify it put that way.

I put now GPL-2.0+ in debian/copyright

I put space between "changelog." and "The".

Modified to "all the information"

>Why is README.source shipped in the *binary* package?


So that the end user knows the changelog did not come from the upstream source code,
so I sent along the binary package.

Just upload the package with the changes mentioned in the email is already in mentors
