 Updated package available on mentors,

It would have been better it you went thru my list of points and
commented each, if done or not (and why) since some are missing :)
like,

- some changes missing in changelog
- double empty line between entry and tailer line of the last changelog entry
- license (GPLv2) not clear stated for upstream work (when referring
to local license file)
- license for your work not clearly states the version of GPL

but here come the worst part, it FTBFS in pbuilder (attached the full log):

sizeof(int)

2008-11-22 Thread peter green

Is int 32 bit on all ports of debian? if not what ports is it not 32 bit on?

more generally is there a list availible anywhere of debian 
architectures and the size of the standard C data types on them?

int is not definied as 32 bit use uint32_t (from stdint.h) for that. 
Please look at the specific abi specifiction of your plattform.

And you can look at http://wiki.debian.org/ArchitectureSpecificsMemo for 
possible differences.

RFS: latexdiff (take 2)

2008-11-22 Thread Pietro Abate
Hello dear mentors.

I've packaged latexdiff (ITP:#469460), a small utilty to generate
friendly latex file that contains the annotated diff of the versions of
the same document. Very useful for non technical ppl.

You can access the git repo here:
http://git.debian.org/?p=users/munga-guest/latexdiff.git;a=summary
(I use git-buildpackage)

or otherwise you can get the package here with dget :
dget -u http://alioth.debian.org/~munga-guest/latexdiff_0.5-1.dsc
(it's not signed. I don't have my keys handy atm)

I think a good place for this package would be in the texlive group
on alioth...

Thanks martin for the review.

:)

Re: Re: RFS: xinha

2008-11-22 Thread Raphael Geissert
Hi,

debian/control:

What about adding a replaces: htmlarea? or maybe some other mention so that
people looking for htmlarea actually find something (better).

 Build-Depends: debhelper (= 6.0.7~)

what is that tilde doing there? (lintian should probably warn about it)

debian/rules:

(cleanup) build-stamp is not needed, you can get rid of it ('build' is a PHONY
target anyway).

  #marking files as not executable (lintian warnings)
  find debian/xinha/usr/share/xinha/www -type f -exec chmod -x '{}' \;
  find debian/xinha/usr/share/doc/xinha/examples -type f -exec chmod -x '{}' 
 \; 

chmod -R -x,+X debian/xinha/usr/share/xinha/www
chmod -R -x,+X debian/xinha/usr/doc/xinha/examples

  cp contrib/php-xinha.php $(CURDIR)/debian/xinha/usr/share/doc/xinha/examples
  dh_installchangelogs -i release-notes.txt

Why are these in binary-indep and not in install just like the rest?
(I know must packages do something similar, even some (if not all) of mine).

debian/copyright-REMOVED:

nice work :)

debian/uupdate-wrapper:

   | gzip  xinha_$version.orig.tar.gz
use max compression (a.k.a -9)

You should also:
* use 'set -e'
* better use the same file name as in $file (there should be no worries about
replacing the file while reading from it because tar requires the whole tarball
to be available/read).

debian/copyright:
 Format-Specification:
http://wiki.debian.org/Proposals/CopyrightFormat?action=recallrev=REVISION

You are actually supposed to replace REVISION with the revision of the page you
based your copyright file on.

debian/examples:
I can see some references to the php-xinha.php file in xinha itself, are you
sure it should be installed just as an example?

Cheers,

It allows the package to build with backports of debhelper 6.0.7.

More comments:

It is best not to speculate about future features in the package
description, please remove the last line.

Uhhh, Depends: is a header for binary packages, not source packages.
You put ${misc:Depends} in the wrong section:

dpkg-gencontrol: warning: unknown information field 'Depends' in input
data in general section of control info file

debian/rules configure doesn't seem to be needed, delete it and remove
it from .PHONY.

The upstream code does not contain any copyright information, please
ask upstream to fix it (add add your manual page at the same time).

Please also ask upstream to add the standard GPL license grant to the
script so that there can be no confusion about which version of the
GPL is to be used.
