I admire you and your work, I think you're are a great experienced Debian Developer but your words sound really odd to me. As you know, I prefer using DH but this doesn't make me refuse to help anyone who would like to maintain an interesting package using CDBS only (or CDBS+debhelper) rather than the abbreviated pure DH7 short-form. Of course I suggest to my sponsorees to use DH, but if they feel more comfortable to choose some other tool which allows them to do an appreciable job well, I can assure you that I don't raise any particular objections. Even if they decide to not follow my advices and go on using CDBS. The reason is easy to find: we are a team and IMHO what we should do is a collaborative effort. That is a bit different from playing against ourselves. -- Alessio Treglia <[email protected]> Debian & Ubuntu Developer | Homepage: http://www.alessiotreglia.com 0FEC 59A5 E18E E04F 6D40 593B 45D4 8C7C DCFC 3FD0 _______________________________________________ pkg-multimedia-maintainers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-multimedia-maintainers
