emh, I'm pretty sure is very very hard to find sponsorship filing a bug against a non-existing package ;) you're lucky that somebody reads bugs filed against unknown packages :) > > * Package name : tldp > Version : 0.7.8 > Upstream Author : Martin A.

Furthermor, the signature on that file is made with a 1024 bit DSA key, something that I don't really consider secure, and that we removed from our keyrings.

Brown <mar...@linux-ip.net> Tue, 19 Apr 2016 15:40:13 -0400 umh. If this is the first version of the package, the changelog should contain only the "initial release" line. Also, the version is totally off, please read the in the debian policy the chapter dealing with the version and native/non-native stuff. > This is the first upload and/or request for sponsorship of > python3-tldp. > > The package builds (successfully) using 'gpb buildpackage' straight > from a cloned checkout (on master at HEAD). I'm going to assume you used either sbuild or pbuilder with gbp, as packages are supposed to build in a clean *sid* chroot. > The lintian warnings I > see are: > > W: tldp source: newer-standards-version 3.9.8 (current is 3.9.6) update lintian, this has been fixed yesterday. Well, if it says the current is 3.9.6 you are using an actually too old lintian to be really effective; please always use the version you can find in unstable or jessie-backports. > W: tldp source: debian-watch-file-in-native-package well, yes, i said above why. I have a feeling you are not running lintian with pedatinc enable, please run lintian with more verbosity level.
