Package: mined Version: 2000.15.4-1 Severity: normal Sorry but I have to say, this package comes in a very sloppy packaging work... Maybe no one uses this thus no bug report exists but this is no excuse for the maintainer. The program itself looks interesting UTF-8 capable WordStar/TarboPascal like editor with active upstream.
By the way, I get reminder from upstream reminding me there is a new upstream release. (I have no idea why ...) So you must be uploading new one soonish as the maintainer. Please read the following and address issues raised. Let me be specific on bugs. Please note $ pwd;ls -l README /usr/share/doc/mined lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 27 Sep 26 2009 README -> usrshare/package_doc/README This link is broken one since usrshare is in /usr/share/mined and clearly a bug. This may be upstream changing directory usage and maintainer script may not have been updated in sync. But this is a bug. Another thing is this directory usage of /usr/share/mined/ is a bit out of line with other normal packages. Many scripts under /usr/share/mined/bin/* and /usr/share/mined/conf_user/* seems to be ones normally under /usr/share/doc/mined/examples . package_doc/* and doc_user/* should be normally in /usr/share/doc/. If you have reason to keep there, please make links from normal location to these so the user can fond them. I wonder why /usr/share/mined/setup_install/* are there? Why not use them as postinst and load them into proper location so Gnome menu list them. (It seems these are not used. I did not check it but just an impression. I may be wrong here.) (If I package this, I would move most of these to the normal location except /usr/share/mined/help/mined.hlp. after patching documentation.) Anyway, this package still uses old dpatch. Time to make a clean repackage using the dh syntax and 3.0(quilt) format, I think.
