I proposed to get rid of those as they tend to confuse people. I personally don't read either one, to be honest and apparently Asheesh doesn't do so either. However, for the time being they are here so we should really take care someone notices them - sorry about that. > And people seem to talk about it here as well.

While I fear, we're annoying other people, it's probably the best option to send such questions to debian-mentors for now. Many people do anyway, so you wouldn't be the first as you noted. > I was thinking that it might be nice to link to the PTS page for > packages that are already in Debian.

We're not running the QA plugin currently as it doesn't do anything useful (yet). However the plugin architecture is limited in many ways too, so we want to normalize the data plugins are creating before working on the plugins itself again since that may yield to API changes. > If I don't intend to actually finish all of these checks, would it be > more desirable to move the "Package is in Debian" check to a new > plugin or to enable the DebianQA plugin and comment out the > non-working checks? I am fine to enable the plugin as is with the stub code, as it does not hurt either. If you only want to have the test_package_in_debian test, that's fair enough. I just tested your patch and successively committed it into our repository [1]. We will announce it here on the mailing list, as soon as we deploy a version which includes your change.
