Try using linda and lintian to get it into shape: #> lintian -i splat_0.2-1_i386.changes W: splat source: out-of-date-standards-version 3.6.0 N: N: The source package refers to a 'Standards-Version' that is starting N: to get out of date, compared to current Policy. You can safely N: ignore this warning, but please consider updating the package to N: current Policy. 3.6.1 is current, fyi. E: splat source: depends-on-build-essential-package-without-using-version make [build-depends: make] N: N: The package declares a depends on a build essential package without N: using a versioned depends. In general a package should not depend on N: build essential packages but if it must do so, the depends should have N: a version string. N: N: Refer to Policy Manual, section 4.2 for details. This simply means that you don't need (and actually shouldn't) build-depend on packages which are installed as dependencies of "build-essential". Remove "make" from the list of build-dependencies and you are done with this error. W: splat: unquoted-string-in-menu-item /usr/lib/menu/splat needs:2 N: N: The menu item includes a tag with an unquoted string like N: section=Games instead of section="Games". This is deprecated. Use a N: quoted string instead. N: N: Refer to menu 3.2 for details. W: splat: unquoted-string-in-menu-item /usr/lib/menu/splat section:2 You should quote "X11" and "Apps/Technical". With the current version, linda doesn't report anything lintian didn't report, but that's not always the case (and vice-versa). cu, sven -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
