Package: pkg-perl-tools
Version: 0.82
Severity: normal
Dear Team,
The quilt patch system has now been the default for a very long time.
There are now <1% of stragglers, none of them being Perl packages.
echo " -Q - add debian/README.solurce pointing to _Q_uilt's
README.source"
echo " if the package uses quilt"
Please remove the -Q option of scripts/packagecheck.
It generates useless boilerplate.
By virtue of this option still being there, someone might deduce
it is usefull or even the recommended way of working.
Less is more ;-)
Greetings
Alexandre
