Hi Adam,
The .desktop file has a stray line at its start.
fixed
The menu icon for .desktop doesn't show up for me (in XFCE).
probably because it's .gif and fd.o doesn't support it
It should be grouped in "System" rather than "Other".
maybe or rather probably
The package's short desc shouldn't be capitalized.
fixed
The long desc shouldn't mention that this program started as an universityassignment, it's a bit of history not relevant to using the program.
dropped
Some method of su{,do}-to-root should be providen -- as is, the program fails to start claiming it needs root, and starting it as root manually involves some bits generally unknown by users who need a clicky-clicky tool (ie, the intended audience).
for upstream
When deleting an user ("gnats" in my case) it threw a message that /home/gnats doesn't exist -- despite $HOME for that user being /var/lib/gnats (obtainable by getpwent()->pw_dir).
for upstream
Meow!
Woff!
