Wow, took me quite a while to find the time to proceed... Anyways, I
* updated to the new upstream release 1.1.2 * run the tests in debian/rules * fixed bugs in debian/rules related to the changelog extraction * dropped an unused file in debian/ * cleaned up the comments in debian/rules * squashed debian/changelog to a single entry I uploaded the new version to mentors.debian.net. The package can be found on mentors.debian.net: - URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/contrib/v/viennacl - Source repository: deb-src http://mentors.debian.net/debian unstable main contrib non-free - dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/contrib/v/viennacl/viennacl_1.1.2-1.dsc The Git repository is on alioth.debian.net: - Browser: http://git.debian.org/?p=debian-science/packages/viennacl.git - Clone: git+ssh://git.debian.org/git/debian-science/packages/viennacl.git I would be glad if someone reviewed and uploaded this package for me.
