I've uploaded a new version to the same mentors.d.n URL, but you can also get it from the GitLab repo as the mentors/1.0.3-1-02 tag. > > ...or from its new, full-source Git repository (not the same as the one > > referred to by the hexer package in unstable, so debcheckout won't work): > > > > git clone https://gitlab.com/hexer/hexer.git > > cd hexer > > git checkout pristine-tar > > git checkout debian > > pristine-tar checkout ../hexer_1.0.3.orig.tar.xz > > git hints: > > * `git clone -b debian <url>` intead of clone + cd + checkout > * pristine-tar does not need a checked-out branch to checkout a tarball > :) Right, well, I didn't know about the second one - that pristine-tar doesn't require a local branch. Since I didn't know, I figured that three local branches need to be created anyway, so there'd need to be two "git checkout" commands anyway, so there's no need to type the additional "-b debian" in the initial "clone" command since we'd have to have the "git checkout debian" command last so we can end up on the Debian branch... Pfff, microoptimizations arising out of ignorance - ain't it fun! :) > things: > > * d/copyright: > + trailing whitespace at line 57 Argh.

I knew about these, I was wondering whether they're worth it, but yeah, okay, I decided to go whole hog and replaced the package name and the version, too. Thanks. > * d/menu: > + drop it? It has been declered obsoleted by tech-ctte. Mmm. The problem is, as stated in the changelog entry already, that hexer does not have an icon for a desktop file (and it's mandatory). So for the present, to have any chance of including hexer in some kind of menu system, it has to have a menu entry. I'm thinking of filing a wishlist RFH bug against hexer about somebody helping me design an icon... okay, well, about somebody designing an icon and receiving my sincere gratitude in return :) I'll think about it some more.
