Package: npm2deb
Version: 0.2.6-1
Severity: normal
Tags: patch
The ‘npm2deb’ tool can automatically generate an ITP report. One field
that it automatically generates is the package description.
This unfortunately makes it very easy to submit *bad* ITP reports,
with package descriptions that are quite unsuitable for Debian ITPs.
Please make the ITP template produce a document that strongly
encourages the maintainer to manually edit the description, to meet
Developer's Reference guidelines in §6.2.1 – §6.2.3.
Attached is my suggested patch for this.
