Re: Bug#983146: 983146 RFS: bung/3.0.7-2 [ITP] -- backup next generation



Hi Charles, 

(I'm sorry I did not  have time for a complete review, so this one is possibly
incomplete and focuses mostly on that what lintian told me.)

There are a few typos:

A spare manpage:
I: bung: spare-manual-page usr/share/man/man8/bung-common.8.gz

Old Standard Version:
I: bung source: out-of-date-standards-version 4.1.4 (released 2018-04-05) (current is 4.5.1)
(See the Debian Policy for the upgrade checklist; this will then fix also:
P: bung source: silent-on-rules-requiring-root


Old Compat level, using d/compat:
P: bung source: package-uses-old-debhelper-compat-version 11
P: bung source: uses-debhelper-compat-file


Others (partly needs to be checked if valid)
I: bung source: older-debian-watch-file-standard 3
I: bung: possible-documentation-but-no-doc-base-registration


- d/patches/series can be deleted -- there are no patches
- maybe add a d/source/metadata -- see https://wiki.debian.org/UpstreamMetadata
- d/README.Debian is not needed, contains no important infromation. delete it.
- d/changelog targets "UNRELEASED". (Maybe useful: Use dc -r ""  to update it and
  update the timestamp.)
- d/control, package description.
    - The short package description should explain a bit more a bout bung than
    "backup system".
    - The extended description maybe should be not only a bullet point list,
      more free text elaborating a bit more about bung, why one wants it and
      its key features. (I know this is usually quite hard, maybe take a look at
      other packages how this is usually done)


Again, sorry, ENOTIME for a complete review, but you can work on those (small) issues
already :)
