Bug#663006: libnfc co-maintainer?

It looks like you are not yet a DD and may be looking for a sponsor. That's great! Actually, I think you already applied the patches I created while packaging ;-). For reference, last week I have submitted the RFS as #672795 indeed. I propose you to use collab-maint projet on alioth to host the debian/* packaging files. It will then be easy to co-maintain the NFC-related packages. That sounds like a good idea. I think the current procedure for getting access to collab-maint is the one in http://deb.li/3qmXG, so I've applied to the collab-maint project at Alioth (username oxan-guest). I already made some changes to the debian/* files in https://libnfc.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/debian to fix some lintian warnings but I also prefer to have the debian/* files in a separate repository. Great. I'll take a look at them and merge the relevant changes to my packaging. I created a (empty) SVN repository. To get it use: $ svn co svn+ssh://svn.debian.org/svn/collab-maint/deb-maint/libnfc Bye -- Dr. Ludovic Rousseau -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

I've imported my current libnfc package into the repository (using debian/ only, but we can change that if you want). Most notable changes with the upstream packaging are: - I renamed the libnfc-bin package to libnfc-utils and dropped the libnfc-examples and libnfc-pn53x-examples. I'm not sure how useful the examples are for end-users. - Enabled multi-arch for the library package - Added an libnfc3-dbg package - Currently it still requires pcsc due to the acr122 driver. We might want to change that, but I'm a bit reluctant because the USB driver isn't in the 1.6.0~rc1 version yet.

Upstream contains a rather verbose debian/changelog. Could this be edited down, renamed and/or merged with ChangeLog so that debian/changelog contains exclusively a log of *Debian's* work? Or how do you feel about this? -- Thomas Hood (Maintainer of provisory libnfc packages at ppa:jdthood/nfc)

I think most, if not all, information in the upstream debian/changelog is already in ChangeLog, which I intend to ship as the upstream changelog in the Debian packages.
