Bug#864944: RFS: zimg/2.5.1-1 [ITP]

[Andrey Rahmatullin]

Control: tags -1 + moreinfo

Please update to the current Standards-Version.
Please switch to the debhelper compat level 10.
${shlibs:Depends} for libzimg-examples does nothing and there is a warning
about that in the build log.
Files: src/* doc/* test/* m4/* * should be replaced with just Files: *.
*.la files should not be installed.
You should disable compression for the example files.
test/extra/* should be covered in d/copyright.
The package seems to contain tests but they are not run during the build
process.
Consider providing a symbols file for the lib.

and  '.'  emphasis the space z and lib.

[Ghislain Vaillant]

Yes, drop z.lib in favor or zimg.

Besides, users would typically discover the library via pkg-config with
the `zimg` keyword or use it with the link flag -lzimg. Based on that,
it sounds to me that the canonical name for the library should be
(lib)zimg, not z.lib.

Naming is hard.

Am I the only one concerned about the confusion between the standard
zlib library and this z.lib?

This looks wrong. What is the ITP bug you are supposed to close with
