Bug#780935: RFS: bakefile/1.2.5.1-1 [ITP]



> I am looking for a sponsor for my package "bakefile"

That's great! I'm not a DD, so I can't sponsor your package, but here's
my overview:

General:
-The upstream tarball contains embedded code copies of the java
version of antlr, which violates Debian policy. You'll need to repack
the tarball and add +ds to the version number, add a dependency on
libantlr-java and possibly modify the build process to accommodate this
change.
-Remove the .pc directory

d/bakefile.lintian-overrides:
-Since you're going to have to repack the tarball anyway, would you be
able to use libjs-query and libjs-underscore?

d/bkl.1:
-If you haven't already, you should try sending this upstream.

d/control:
-You should use a Vcs for the Debian packaging, as most sponsors will
require one. If you *really* don't want to, then remove the Vcs-*
fields.

d/copyright:
-Not all files are under the license in COPYING. For example:
 *extras/vim/bkl.vim
 *docs/bkl_lexer.py
 *docs/gen_reference.py
 *Any embedded code copies
-Get rid of the "Copyright (C)" on line 6

d/README.source:
-I understand your reasoning, but would it be possible to have separate
packages for each incompatible python-antlr3 version, as needed?

Good luck getting your package into Debian,

Riley Baird
