Package looks fine to me, although I can't figure out why xsltproc warns like that [0] when -nonet option were passed to it. [0] xsltproc -''-nonet -''-param man.charmap.use.subset "0" /usr/share/sgml/docbook/stylesheet/xsl/nwalsh/manpages/docbook.xsl debian/cppcheck.1.xml I/O error : Attempt to load network entity http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd debian/cppcheck.1.xml:62: warning: failed to load external entity "http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.5/docbookx.dtd"; ]> Let me look at that closer during the weekend and I'll sponsor untill Sunday night. > What should I do now?

Let me gabble out a bit: I think cppcheck could be used to test some code generated by tools like bison++ and bisonc++, along with the human-generated code of course. Furthermore, I believe that some of the advices and recommendations given by Scott Meyers [1] could be implemented in cppcheck. Interestingly enough, Meyes first intended to create such a checking tool, but gave up since some of the `rules' were too hard to formalize, there were too many important exceptions to these rules which must be taken into account and it is somehow dangerous to be enforced blindly by a program. So, I'd love to see him proven wrong, at least partially ;-) [1] in "Effective and More Effective C++" -- pub 4096R/0E4BD0AB 2003-03-18 <people.fccf.net/danchev/key pgp.mit.edu> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
