Hi Uwe,

while looking at packages for which vcswatch reports problems, I came
across pslib.  First of all, thank you for maintaining both the upstream
project and the Debian package for so many years.

Since nearly all of your other Debian packages are maintained on Salsa,
I wondered whether pslib might simply be an exception because the Debian
packaging lives together with the upstream sources. To make
experimenting easier, I extracted the Debian packaging with

  git filter-repo --path pslib/debian --path-rename pslib/debian/:debian/

and imported the result into a Salsa repository for the Debian package:

  https://salsa.debian.org/debian/pslib

If you find this useful, I'd be happy if you considered using that
repository for the Debian packaging. Of course, if your current workflow
works better for you, please feel free to ignore this.

While reviewing the packaging, I also noticed that debian/copyright
appears to be incomplete, which is why I'm filing this bug report.

I prepared an updated version here:

  
https://salsa.debian.org/debian/pslib/-/blob/master/debian/copyright?ref_type=heads

I believe this covers the missing copyright information. The second
paragraph ("Files: src/ps_intern.h ...") is probably just a minor issue
that lrc pointed out and could likely be addressed upstream. The
remaining additions, however, document copyright information that
appears to be missing from the current debian/copyright.

I hope this is helpful.

I would appreciate if you would take over the repository on Salsa as the
Vcs for the packaging of pslib.

Kind regards
   Andreas.
