Argh!!

Here is my report: * debian/changelog - line 49, fashion (typo); maybe give a run if spellcheck in the rest of the changelog entry :) - "+ Removed 'binary-arch' target in debian/rules to silence new lintian warning.": well, the target is still there, but it's empty (as it should be) so please adjust this entry (just for clarity) - "+ Added Joel Aelwyn in Uploaders field." but it's not in debian/control * debian/control - "DM-Upload-Allowed: yes", don't take this too bad, but this field is usually added but your usual sponsor, so please remove it (for now) :) - "Process incoming packages using Inotify (requires liblinux-inotify2-perl)" but liblinux-inotify2-perl it's in Depends (so always installed) so why mention it in the description (I can understand for the others, though)? - bump versioned depends on debhlper (as lintian suggests; do you run lintian, right?) - personally I'd add "Build-Depends-Indep: perl" to control, even if perl if "Build-Essential: yes" * debian/copyright - if you're using http://wiki.debian.org/Proposals/CopyrightFormat then I think it's missing (at least) "Format-Specification:" field - $ grep 2004 bin/debpool # Copyright 2003-2004 Joel Baker. All rights reserved. but it's not in debian/copyright file; please fix this * not a problem, just a notice: since you have only one binary package, you can remove the package name from debhelper support filename, like in "debpool.docs" it might be only "docs" * debian/README.User - 1.: what about adding a \ at the end of first command line, so even pasting from the doc directly will lead to a correct command? - 1. and 2.: in the first example you don't say that you need root account to create a new system user, and in the second you use "sudo" that might not be set-up to execute all command for the current user; I'd uniform those example to a safer bet: use root (?) - "3. Create a logfile directory for debpool" is /var/log/debpool a directory or a logfile? because "sudo touch" will create a file... - "4. Edit /etc/debpool/Config.pm" is this editable by debpool users? how is it supposed to setup a local repo and have his own config file? * debian/rules - clean target, what about mergin "rm -f ..." call to dh_clean call (they do the same stuff...)? - "dh_installexamples examples/*" but $ cat debian/debpool.examples examples/* * is this upload really targetted to experimental? is there a plan to upload in unstable anytime soon, or it's a decision you took to leave the package in exp? * I'm wondering if "DebPool::Config.5" it's the best name possible for manpage for config file, maybe something more debpool-friendly, but I'll leave the decision to you :) I didn't have time to play for real with the program, but it builds fine in pbuilder and install without problem; tomorrow I'll play with it.
