> * debian/copyright needs to be updated (some have 2017 copyright holders)
Fixed now in https://anonscm.debian.org/git/pkg-gnome/gnome-characters.git/commit/?id=7a5ba1b > W: gnome-characters: appstream-metadata-in-legacy-location > usr/share/appdata/org.gnome.Characters.appdata.xml Slightly complicated. gnome-characters still uses autotools and the source tarball embeds the appstream-xml.m4. Embedded macros override system macros (that surprised me to realize that!). If the tarball is generated with appstream-glib > 0.7.3, the metadata will be installed to the modern location. So this can be fixed with a new upstream release. Or we could do some hacks in debian/rules if you want this done sooner. By the way, have you seen the Files-Excluded trick for debian/copyright and uscan (mentioned briefly in the uscan manpage)? I think it makes sense to exclude as many m4 files as possible but it's easier to wait for a new release to do this to not need to rename the original tarball. > * Opened question: should we have a lintian override for: > W: gnome-characters: desktop-command-not-in-package > usr/share/applications/org.gnome.Characters.desktop gapplication? Could you ask the Debian GNOME team this question? > Also, related to this, as the .desktop is Exec=gapplication <…>, shouldn't the binary package dep on libglib2.0-bin? It already does. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1713176 Title: [MIR] gnome-characters To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-characters/+bug/1713176/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
