The former did indeed contain the whole GPL. Kind regards, Philipp Kern -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Bug#341163: electricsheep: Several packaging issues
Package: electricsheep Version: 2.6.3-1 Severity: normal Hi Alexis, this package has several packaging issues which are outlined below. The problems are taken verbatim from the soon-to-come TS part 2 reply. Please fix them as soon as possible. * Why is there a debian/REJECT in the diff, containing debian/copyright? * It is wrong to include the whole GPL in debian/copyright because it wastes disk space. Please truncate it to the amount used in the source files and refer to the copy of the GPL: | On Debian GNU/Linux systems, the complete text of the GNU General | Public License can be found in `/usr/share/common-licenses/GPL'. * You should convert your package away from xlibs-dev to a more narrow set of libraries, to include just those needed. * You include `debian/default-files/electricsheep.desktop' and `debian/electricsheep.desktop': needless duplication. * In `prerm' there are remainings of `install-info', please use `dh_installinfo' instead when you need it. It will take care of all that. * Your maintainer scripts are all stubs, you could easily cut them down to a tiny version which just contains the shebang, `set -e' and `#DEBHELPER#'. But this is not required. * `debian/rules' looks ok. Kind regards, Philipp Kern Debian Developer -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
