I didn't include the whole GPL (this debian/copyright file was made by
the previous maintainer).

Here is the content:

Are you meaning I should remove the first paragraphs?

I confused `debian/REJECT' and `debian/copyright', sorry. The former did
indeed contain the whole GPL.

Kind regards,

Bug#341163: electricsheep: Several packaging issues

2005-11-28 Thread pkern
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
