Version: 1.9-2.2
Severity: minor
Tags: patch
Hi,
According to the policy (5.6.12), lines to be displayed verbatim must
begin with two spaces. Moreover, policy also says: "Do not use tab
characters. Their effect is not predictable."
Both rules are violates by the description of sparc-utils (several lines
begin with a tab character) which makes the description very ugly
when displayed with aptitude. (I haven't tried with other tools such as
dselect;.)
Although this is a violation of the policy, I don't think it deserves a
severity above minor.
Regards,
Nicolas

.
* Gratefully acknowledge previous NMUs.
Closes: #216131, #246879, #346584, #379414
* Force 4-byte alignment of global array buf and array buf2 in
print_all_options() of prtconf-1.3/eeprom.c. That ensures that
when we cast struct openpromio into such a buffer, oprom_array
ends up at a properly aligned location, and we don't catch a
SIGBUS when trying to assign an int to it. Closes: #388315
* Use syscall() interface in sparc32.c to perform the personality
setting instead of _syscall1() which is no longer exposed to
userland starting with linux-kernel-headers 2.6.18-1.
* Disable installation of /etc/default/audioctl, as we no longer
provide audioctl utility. Disable installation of /etc/init.d
and /etc/default directories, since they are empty now. Remove
debian/conffiles, where /etc/default/audioctl was the only
entry.
* Fix CFLAGS:
- set the correct default (-g -O2).
- implement logic to honor the 'nostrip' and 'noopt' settings
in DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS.
- make sure that CFLAGS are passed correctly to all sub-makes.
- tweak sparc32 Makefile to honor CFLAGS we pass to it, instead
of using hardcoded ones.
* Do not end the Description with full stop (lintian warning).
* Update and expand the copyright file.
* Add myself to Uploaders, with maintainer's permission.
