Bug#760241: RFS: winetricks/0.0+20140818+svn1202-1 (ITA)
Hi Joseph.
Please:
1. d/changelog:
- Change from 'Add Joseph Bisch as maintainer (Closes: #735288)'
to 'New maintainer (Closes: #735288)'.
2. Remove all garbage: d/changelog.{BACKUP.21866, BASE.21866,
LOCAL.21866, REMOTE.21866}. These files are trash or references to
Ubuntu d/changelog.
3. d/control:
- Why the package recommends zenity | kdebase-bin? I am afraid
because kdebase-bin is a monster (a detail: I use KDE). I need you
invetigate this dependency.
- Do you have access to collab-maint? If not, you must create an
external VCS and import all data.
- The long description appears a mix between long description and
README. Please, move this content to README.Debian (you can create a
new section below the Jari Aalto and put a footer with your name):
About pckages in Recommends header: to use GUI progress bar, install
package zenity. To read manuals, install package xdg-utils. If
you need to cache any *.iso files with the -k option, install package
sudo or sudo GUI gksu.
.
NOTE: This package suggests installing package libwine. Some, but not
all package downloads depend on restarting the wineserver which is
included in libwine.
.
NOTE: In case you have compiled wine from sources and installed it
out of dpkg(1)'s control, winetricks' depends wouldn't know about it. In
that case create a dummy wine package to satisfy depends by using
tools in equivs package before installing winetricks. An example:
.
git clone g...@github.com:jaalto/project--debian-wine-dummy.git
cd project--debian-wine-dummy
make
dpkg -i wine*.deb
apt-get install winetricks
I suggest review and rewrite the original text.
d/copyright: you need update the upstream name list and years in
'Files: *'. you can use 'grep -sri copyright * | grep -v debian'.
d/rules: I suggest move the winetricks.svg install to d/install. it
will avoid two points of installation.
d/watch: doesn't show the last version.
d/clean: currently, this file hasn't a function.
Thanks for your work.
Cheers,
Eriberto

Hi Eriberto,
Thanks for reviewing my package. I reuploaded it to mentors.d.n. I
also uploaded to a private git repository, because I don't have
access to collab-maint. See my notes below on your points.

I moved all the stuff to README.Debian. I don't have access to collab-maint,
so I changed the Vcs fields to a private repo. I think the package
recommends zenity | kdebase-bin because of Kdialog which can be used as an
alternative to zenity. What do you think I should do about it?
d/copyright: you need update the upstream name list and years in
'Files: *'. you can use 'grep -sri copyright * | grep -v debian'.
Done

Done
d/watch: doesn't show the last version.
What do you suggest I do? The watch file is setup for the actual releases,
but the previous maintainer has been packaging the version directly from
svn. I guess I can figure out a way to get the watch file working with
Google Code source browser.
d/clean: currently, this file hasn't a function.
Removed.
Thanks,
Joseph
