Re: How to package my development utility?
Hi, just as a curiosity, how is it better/different than tar? Bye In data domenica 08 settembre 2013 12.05.45, Andreas Tscharner ha scritto: Dear Mentors, I have written a small development utility: https://bitbucket.org/StarFire/lrc/overview It consists of 1) a binary, called 'lrc', which packs a list of files into one file 2) a small library, called liblrc, which can be used in the application to unpack these files and access their data If you want to compile an application that uses liblrc, you also need a few small header files. Now, how do I package this utility for Debian? I think I have to split it up, but how? One package for the binary and one for the library? Where do I put the header files? Are there any packages that I can use as an example (One application, more packages)?

Bug#675532: RFS: bilibop/0.1 (ITP #675467)
Hi, quidame wrote (20 Jul 2013 10:56:58 GMT) : First, was the target distribution change in debian/changelog intentional? (0.4.12 has experimental, 0.4.13 has unstable.) Yes it is; the target distribution was set to experimental for the wheezy's freeze duration... after what it was forgotten. Do you think I should revert to experimental ? No, unstable should be fine. Thanks for all the fixes. I've just reviewed and built 0.4.15 and hoped to upload right away, but Lintian is still not happy: W: bilibop-rules: extended-description-contains-empty-paragraph N: N:The extended description (the lines after the first line of the N:Description: field) contains an empty paragraph.

Bug#722094: RFS: avra/1.3.0-1 [ITA] -- assembler for Atmel AVR microcontrollers
❦ 10 septembre 2013 06:04 CEST, Milan Kupcevic mi...@physics.harvard.edu : Please, convert debian/copyright to DEP-5. This is not a mandatory step for Debian policy but this is something that I require to sponsor packages. Done. Usually, we ignore autoconf stuff like configure, Makefile.in. I think there is no consensus on this. However, since there are no other problems, I have uploaded the package as is. Feel free to remove the copyright sections about those autogenerated files. Moreover, this file is currently incomplete. You should update the years, add copyright information for debian/* files Done. and it seems you are not one of the copyright holders. Well, while transforming the package to 3.0 quilt I rewrote all the content in almost all the files in debian/*, and added new files. There is hardly any content left of previous maintainers. Moreover, out of three patches I'm the author of two, and I back-ported the code from the upstream for the third patch. In fact, I was willing to say you are one of the copyright holders (about stuff outside debian directory). Dunno why a not has found its way in the sentence. ;-) -- Debian package sponsoring guidelines: http://vincent.bernat.im/en/debian-package-sponsoring.html signature.asc Description: PGP signature
