Hi, I maintain a popular lockscreen called i3lock-color. I've filed an ITP for it and have a .deb package ready.

Exactly what I do, after uploading the package to mentors.d.n, I am waiting for
the sponsor to analyze the package and, after everything is right, send it to
the salsa repository.
I don't know if I have permission at this point to make my changes to my package
directly through the salsa repository.
I would like to find a link to do the correct procedure for this.

I understand, I will remove the "jag-data" in "Depends:". I am still adapting to
add autopkgtest to my packages.

Sorry, I didn't get it right. Could you help me so I can specify better? :/

In version 0.3.6-1, I removed ">= ${source:Version}" because one of the sponsors
told me that I wouldn't need this because "jag-data" is in the same package as
"jag". When I run "apt install jag", it automatically extracts "jag-data"
normally. But I can add again without any problems. :)

What I learned at the moment, I use more to download via uscan from my GitLab
repository, whenever there is a new version of the software, and I type: "uscan
--force-download" and then "uupdate".
If you have another, more recent way, let me know where to find it so I can
improve myself.
Thanks and see you!

Bug#959897: RFS: awf-gtk2/2.0.0-3 [ITP] -- A widget factory is a theme preview application for GTK
Hi! Thank you. The version is -3 because I uploaded some test versions on mentors.debian.net. I tried to upload 2.0.0-1 many times, but it was refused, so I changed version number. I'm confused about the lintian override (description-synopsis-starts-with-article) and "A Widget Factory". I use the lintian ovevride for initial "A"... Does I change the name to "A Widget Factory" anyway? You say "Also: despite GTK2 being deprecated, having the gtk2 package would be great.", I agree x10. I have updated this tool to port a gtk2 theme to gtk3.

Hmm, I see that you have not uploaded these changes to the Salsa
repository; it seems to me that you are in the habit of making changes
somewhere else, then importing them in a single commit once the package
has been uploaded. I think it might be a bit more useful for
collaboration to have your work in the Salsa repository, too.
Not a blocker, just something that caught my eye.

The test definition in the debian/tests/control file has a "Depends:"
line listing both "@" and "jag-data". It is my understanding that "@"
stands for "all the binary packages built in this run", so "jag-data" is
not needed there.
The test itself seems a bit weird to me, too. It looks like jag is
a graphical application; I have not tried running the test, but I wonder
if it might be better to explicitly specify something like a fake X
server; right now I can't quite recall the name, but I'm pretty sure
that I've seen some kind of "no real video output, but all the Xlib
calls and events" server used for testing; it might have been Xvfb.
On a related note, I see that in version 0.3.6-1 you removed the "same
as source:Version" constraint in the jag dependency on jag-data; would
it not be nice to at least have a ">= ${source:Version}" one so that if
somebody runs "apt install jag", it pulls in a usable version of
jag-data automatically?

Maybe for a future upload, but since you're using version 4 of the watch
file format, have you considered using the @PACKAGE@, @ANY_VERSION@, etc
variables that uscan provides now? Of course, it's up to the maintainer
(you) whether that's more readable, but personally to me, it is.
