Attempt to dput fails.
My attempt to send the package swe-standard-data to debian.mentors.net failed. It may be because this is a data package and therefore large. The file it apparently chokes on, swe-standard-data_1-1_all.deb, is 34M in size. I have included below the errors I encounter trying to dput it both with debian6 and with ubuntu. The ubuntu error messages is somewhat more informative. I would like to try method = ftp but that asks for a password and neither or anonymous works!

Paragraph separators (empty lines) and lines consisting only of spaces and tabs are not allowed within field values or between fields. Empty lines in field values are usually escaped by representing them by a space followed by a dot. Regarding debian/copyright: - As implied above, the correct way of dealing with newlines in the license text is not to remove them (because that makes the text a single logical line), but to escape them. Also you removed even newlines between paragraphs... - You don't need to put information about copyright holders in the License field. This is what the Copyright field is for. - You could avoid repeating the whole license text multiple times by using an stand-alone license paragraph.

In this case, I don't see the harm in taking over the project, especially if you are making improvements to it. An upload to experimental is fine. If you think you have a release that is production ready, an upload to unstable should be done instead. -- Regards, Andres Mejia -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

Re: RFS: django-autoslug
* Jocelyn Delalande deb...@hackriculture.fr, 2011-09-19, 02:22: For future, debian-pyt...@lists.debian.org might a better place to ask for sponsorship of packages like this. Ok, I will, is that ok if I stay on debian-mentors for that first package ? Oh, there's nothing wrong with asking here. It's just there's apparently not that many experienced Python packagers reading this list. According to Python Policy 2.2, the binary package name should be python-autoslug. (Now, you may say that's too generic and that the package name should include django - but so should upstream module name...) Yes, I do believe that django-requiring modules should stick in django namespace. Anyway, it's never the case but all debian packages I saw are named python-django-*, I you meant to imply that all Django packages are violating Python Policy 2.2, then this is not true[0]. It is true, however that most of them are named incorrectly, and I'm partially responsible for that, being a sponsor of a few of them. That said, I won't sponsor any new packages violating 2.2. (You are of course free to find another sponsor.) which is quite usefull for the user. I don't see how python-django-$FOO is more useful than python-$FOO. Surely the latter is easier to type. ;) autoslug/tests.py: - Please run them at build time. done (needed to add python-all to build-depends). Now please honour DEB_BUILD_OPTION=nocheck. :) I see two lines errors on in QA section of http://mentors.debian.net/package/django-autoslug : Error: /home/expo/data/live/incoming/django-autoslug_1.4.1-1_amd64.changes Error: django-autoslug_1.4.1-1.dsc What do they mean ? It's some kind of brain damage of mentors.d.n software. Please ignore it. Do you see any other issues with this package ? It would be probably worthwhile to explain the long description what a slug field is. I had to look it up in the documentation, even though I've been using Django for a few years.

Looks like lib/freesansbold.ttf constitutes a GPL violation since this is one of the fonts from the GNU FreeFont project, which is GPLed and the source code for it is Fontforge .sfd files, which are not available in pygame.
