Sorry for being unclear. I meant REVU building the packages, not users uploading them. OTOH, we could allow (or even 'force') users to make binary uploads, run lintian (and maybe piuparts too) on them, but don't show binaries to the public (only to devs an to the uploader maybe). > If people can't be bothered to click on the link on their package page in > REVU > to see what the lintian errors are, I doubt an email will help much. I think an email is way more 'discoverable' than a link on the package page on REVU. We could of course improve its place/presentation, but I think a mail will always be more prominent. Cheers, Emilio
