Package: dh-elpa
Version: 0.0.15
Severity: normal
Dear maintainer,
my recent attempt at upgrading the the emacs24 package on my workstation
exposed a number of bugs in both "traditional" elisp and
dh-elpa-generated pacakges. #803344, #803348 are easily fixed by
rebuilding using current dh-elpa, #802963 looks like a very similar
issue.
Since dh-elpa uses templates to generate the install and remove scripts,
it would make sense to add a substvars entry
misc:Built-Using=dh-elpa (= $VERSION)
so that the elpa-* packages can point to the used dh-elpa version using
Built-Using: ${misc:Built-Using}
to their debian/control file. This would make it easier to have the
scripts in the elpa-* packages updated semi-automatically whenever
dh-elpa is updated.
Cheers,
-Hilko
