Source: abook Version: 0.6.1-3 Severity: important Hi,
We are making good progress all togheter cleaning up old outdated/confusing packaging practices. See https://trends.debian.net/ abook has an extraneous/stale build-dependecy on 'quilt'. With modern '3.0 (quilt)' packages this build-dependency is not needed anymore: the task of applying the patches at build-time is handled by dpkg itself. Please also drop the old debian/README.source, everyone should be familiar with '3.0 (quilt)' packages by now. Greetings Alexandre /tmp/abook-0.6.1$ grep quilt -r debian/source/format:3.0 (quilt) debian/control:Build-Depends: libncurses-dev, libreadline-dev, po-debconf, quilt (>= 0.40), dpkg-dev (>= 1.16.1~), debhelper-compat (= 13) debian/changelog: * Switch to dpkg-source 3.0 (quilt) format debian/changelog: - Use versioned Build-Depends on quilt for quilt.make usage.
