 An update will mean a full-archive run, which takes a little more than a
 day, after which the old maintainer URLs will be no more and the new
 format with the e-mail address must be used.
 
 I want to minimize the breakage in links from the PTS and developer pages,
 so I want to coordinate with you a good time to do this.  Could you let me
 know when would be a good time to do the switch, assuming that the archive
 run needs to start about a day and a half in advance of when the new URLs
 will be live?

For me you can go ahead right now if you want, I should be able to find
some time tomorrow (or on sunday) for the PTS if zack is not faster.

In any case, broken links are not the end of the world and it's doesn't
require an up-to-the minute synchronization ;-)

Ack, whatever time you want is fine. I'll be happy to leave the change
to buxy, since (assuming tomorrow I'll do some PTS hacking) I've
something else as my topmost priority.

Ack on this as well :)

Bug#457413: Check section header in source package

2007-12-21 Thread Andreas Tille
Package: lintian
Version: 1.23.41
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

in one of my new packages I accidentially missed the section: header
in the control file which caused ftpmaster to reject the package.
I would regard it reasonable if lintian would check that source and
binary contain a section: header.

Kind regards and thanks for maintaining lintian

   Andreas.
