As I see now our policy manual is (partially) updated [6], but some pages on
wiki are very outdated [7]. So just write to mailing list when you will have
specific questions.

Looking at the REJECT message, you forgot to include the .dsc file in your
upload (i.e. you built with "dpkg-buildpackage -b" or something similar).

Best,



Thanks Sébastien,

That's it. Nothing to do with the dbgsym package after all. I'll check 
my sbuild configuration.


Kind regards, Thibaut.

Use mailing list [1] for discussions with team members. Some info about
joining to Debian Science team you may find at [2]. Also have in mind that
git repositories for our packages were recently moved from Alioth [3][4] to
Salsa [5], and I am not sure that our documentation have been updated...

Help needed with dbgsym package: yorick_2.2.04+dfsg1-7_amd64.changes REJECTED

[Thibaut Paumard]

Dear fellow developpers,

I recently tried to convert a package from the old, manual -dbg package 
scheme to the new, automatic -dbgsym package scheme. I get this reject, 
below. Do you have any clue what I'm doing wrong?

Re: RFS: opencascade/7.2.0-1 [ITP]

[Anton Gladky]

Hi Kurt,

Just a short review. I did not test the package. But some
stuff should be fixed before it will be uploaded.

As I understand you want to maintain the package under the
umbrella of debian science team? If so, please fix some
corresponding fields (maintaner etc) in d/control.

=
1. source/include-binaries remove
2. source/options - remove
3. quilt debian/control : quilt - remove
4. VCS - salsa under d/science
5. all lib-packages should be numbered according to its API-version,
something like libopencascade-modeling-algorithms7.2
6. Install files of lib-packages should have something like
usr/lib/*/libTKMath.so.*, not the particular version
7. --parallel option is not needed with debhelper > 10
8. Not sure about option -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release.
9. Simplify d/rules. All cp-commands should be replaces by the lines
in d/install-files
10. Check whether you need mkdir-commands in d/rules
11. override_dh_makeshlibs looks questionable
12. Use dh_missing --fail-missing to be sure that all files are installed.
13. Point the first upload into the experimental.
14. Double-check __all__ the files and their licenses to save the time
for FTP-masters.
=

Also it is important to check whether the package so-installable with
oce. Also all dependent on oce packages should be checked, whether
they can be rebuilt against opencascade. No need to keep two similiar
packages in the archive.

PS I am mostly off this week.

Regards



Anton
