RFS: plowshare (Second Try)
Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for my package plowshare. * Package name: plowshare Version : 20110918-1 Upstream Author : Matthieu Crapet mcra...@gmail.com * URL : http://code.google.com/p/plowshare/ * License : GPL-3+ Section : web It builds those binary packages: plowshare - download files for file-sharing websites utility My motivation for maintaining plowshare package is because it's an excellent application and tool to automate downloads of file hosting services like rapidshare, megaupload and many others from command prompt. I've used it for a while and it works great, therefore I'd like share it with the community. To access further information about this package, please visit the following URL: http://mentors.debian.net/package/plowshare Alternatively, one can download the package with dget using this command: dget -x http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/p/plowshare/plowshare_20110918-1.dsc I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me. Kind regards. Daniel Echeverry -- Epsilon http://www.rinconinformatico.net http://www.fitnessdeportes.com http://www.dragonjar.org Linux user: #477840 Debian user

Re: RFS: plowshare (Second Try)
I don't intend to sponsor this package[0][1], but here's my quick and incomplete review: There's new upstream version available. Your .orig.tar.gz isn't identical to the can be downloaded from upstream homepage. - debian/*.dirs and debian/*.manpages don't seem to be needed. The setup.sh script already takes care of creating needed directories and installing manual pages (including the one you forgot :P). Please consider shipping the bash completion file in your binary package. In DEP-5 copyright file, patterns in Files field are supposed to be separated by whitespace, not by commas. (BTW, lintian =2.5.3 would tell you that.) Just in case upstream decides to use normal version numbers again, I'd recommend using a slightly different versioning scheme for Debian: 0+MMDD-R [0] I believe that packages like this belong to experimental/contrib, not unstable/main. (This is my personal opinion, not necessarily shared by the rest of the project.) [1] Also, I try to keep away from anything that depend on ImageMagick. :P -- Jakub Wilk -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
