A review of your package: Might want to add a Homepage: http://wiki.debian.org/HomepageFieldHOWTO why not remove this line from debian/rules? # -$(MAKE) distclean might want to support DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=noopt in debian/rules you don't build with -g so you are not supporting DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nostrip might want to add support for cross-compiling by adding --build and --host options to configure: DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE ?= $(shell dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE) DEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE ?= $(shell dpkg-architecture -qDEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE) build: ./configure --host=$(DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE) --build=$(DEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE) might want to use the special syntax for sf.net in your watch file (see uscan manual page) 435166 is not "please package new upstream release", so don't put it on the same line as "New upstream release." in your changelog, instead use something like: * New upstream release. Closes: #446812. - provides hints that the user should be in the plugdev group (Closes: #435166) or * New upstream release. Closes: #446812. * Add a README.Debian explaining that users should be in the plugdev group (Closes: #435166) much of the README file is irrelevant for users of the binary package, you might want to use sed to grab the FAQ section, place it in a FAQ file and install that instead of README (don't forget to remove the FAQ file on clean though). There are some relevant lintian warnings/info: I: gnomad2: desktop-entry-contains-encoding-key /usr/share/applications/gnomad2.desktop:24 Encoding W: gnomad2: desktop-entry-invalid-category Application /usr/share/applications/gnomad2.desktop W: gnomad2: syntax-error-in-debian-changelog line 34 "unknown key-value key Uirgency - copying to XS-Uirgency" -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
