Bug#962697: RFS: ace/6.5.8+dfsg-1 [RC] -- makefile, project, and workspace creator
Hi Sudip,
thanks for the update. Looks good, but before uploading:
Is there a reason not to package 6.5.9?
For future uploads there are a few modernization possiblities,
like please check whether get-orig.sh be replaced by using
Files-Excluded; please check if you decide to package 6.5.9.
Maybe d/rules could be refactored as some of
the bits are probably standard in newer debhelper now, like
the hardening and the manual configure target. Did not check
if it makes sense, but would be cool if you could take a look
or at least put it on your To-Do list.
Cheers,
