Re: RFS: normalize-audio (updated package)
Hi Kevin, You need to complete the debian/copyright a little more as it does not even reference GPL v2, which it is. See the package tnef for an example. A good habit is to run licensecheck -r . from the working directory on every package you work on. I fixed the copyright file. A bit picky on my part, but remove the: ## All lines beginning with `## DP:' are a description of the patch. line in debian/patches/*.dpatch files. It just takes up space. You might also consider slightly more verbose descriptions in each patch just to make it easier on yourself (or the next maintainer) a few years from now. Also, make sure to pass on the patches to upstream. I removed that comment and added proper descriptions. Upstream is aware of all patches. Other than that, looking O.K. although I'm unable to build it right now because pbuilder can't seem to pull down the packages: libvorbis0a libvorbisenc2 libvorbisfile3 from the ftp.us.debian.org archives. I'll try again in a little bit. IIRC there have been various problem reports with ftp.us.d.o from time to time. You might want to try a different mirror. An updated package is at http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/n/normalize-audio/normalize-audio_0.7.7-2.dsc Thanks, Joachim -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

Hi, I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 0.7.7-2 of my package normalize-audio. I haven't checked this in detail but a quick look shows additional build-dependencies: Build-Depends: debhelper (= 5), dpatch, autotools-dev, libaudiofile-dev, libmad0-dev, mpg321, vorbis-tools, flac as compared with: Build-Depends: debhelper (= 5), autotools-dev, libaudiofile-dev, libmad0-dev, vorbis-tools As far as I could see the build does not depend on mpg321, vorbis-tools or flac as no audio files are being converted during the build. the reason for the Build-Depends is the configure script. If these packages are not present at build time, the configure script does not generate the default settings needed to call these tools. You can still supply the necessary command line arguments for the enconder/decoder on the command line, but it is quite convenient to have working defaults.

Hi Kevin, I am looking for a sponsor for the new version 0.7.7-2 of my package normalize-audio. I haven't checked this in detail but a quick look shows additional build-dependencies: Build-Depends: debhelper (= 5), dpatch, autotools-dev, libaudiofile-dev, libmad0-dev, mpg321, vorbis-tools, flac as compared with: Build-Depends: debhelper (= 5), autotools-dev, libaudiofile-dev, libmad0-dev, vorbis-tools I think you do need dpatch though ... Did you confuse both stanzas? Kapil listed them in reverse order: I *added* the dpatch dependency. Separately, in the control file, is it still necessary to keep: Replaces: normalize Conflicts: normalize since normalize was removed from unstable back in Jan. 2005? I guess it is possible that a system was built back in 2004, or off of an old install disk, and that that system had normalize installed and is still using it. Just wondering how long it makes sense to keep Conflicts/Replaces statements for packages no longer in the archives Good point. Since they are not a large burden, it prefer to keep them for now -- unless someone has a good point to drop them. Is there a general consensus? I couldn't find anything in the docs.
