This is great, because it fixes an RC bug! :) Please mention things like that (perhaps even in the Subject) in future emails to debian-mentors, and it might get you a quicker response. Now, a few comments: - mention the new upstream version in the changelog - "Bump Standards" is probably not a good enough description. Try something like "debian/control: Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.3" Perhaps read the relevant dev-ref entry: http://www.debian.org/doc/developers-reference/best-pkging-practices.html#bpp-debian-changelog - svg2png.bash appears to depend on bc. Try building using pbuilder to pick up problems like this. Currently the package fails to build. - Because you're building an arch: all package, Build-Depends should contain only what's necessary for the 'clean' target, and every other build dependency should go in Build-Depends-Indep. This is buried away in the Debian Policy Manual, section 7.7, but there have been discussions of it previously on this list. I haven't checked much more - I'd run lintian on it once it builds successfully. I'm prepared to accept a few lintian errors (and a smaller diff from the previous version) if we can fix that RC bug.
