Package: freecol Version: 0.10.7+dfsg-4 Severity: wishlist Hi,
I am willing to package the latest upstream release of Freecol but I would like to make some packaging changes to ensure that future updates will be simpler to maintain. I suggest to change the build system from cdbs to dh because the latter is usually faster, it provides a more sophisticated way to override certain build steps and most people who are new to Debian will be more familiar with dh than with cdbs. I will also try to simplify the current packaging in general and try to remove the "new-upstream" file for example. If nobody has any objections within the next two weeks, I will go ahead with the update. Regards, Markus
