I noticed that were looking for sponsorship: http://groups.google.com/group/linux.debian.devel.mentors/msg/0ee01b3c5ac37c96 I would be happy to sponsor the package for you. After looking at the package, I have a changes that are needed, though: 1) The copyright file should list the GPLv3, as that's what some (or most) of the licenses specify. GPLv3 specifies v3 or later, which doesn't include v2; having the copyright file say that the entire work is under v2 is not correct. 2) The blueman/bluez directory has different authors; the copyright file should mention that the copyright holder there is Copyright (C) 2008 Vinicius Gomes <vcgomes [at] gmail [dot] com> Copyright (C) 2008 Li Dongyang <Jerry87905 [at] gmail [dot] com> 3) There's a libbluetooth-dev build-dep that can only be satisfied with the version of bluez that's in experimental. Is that a hard requirement, or can it be worked around? If it is a hard requirement, then the package will have to be uploaded into experimental rather than unstable (so the distro entry in the debian changelog would have to be adjusted). 4) There's a missing build-dep: checking for PYGTK... configure: error: Package requirements (pygtk-2.0 >= 2.12.0) were not met: No package 'pygtk-2.0' found A build-dep on python-gtk2-dev (>= 2.12) should be added. 5) Another missing build-dep (be sure to test packages using pbuilder or another such tool): checking for PYNOTIFY... configure: error: Package requirements (notify-python) were not met: python-notify is necessary. 6) Another missing build-dep checking for python module dbus... no configure: error: Could not find Python module dbus python-dbus fixes this. 7) Some lintian warnings which should probably be addressed: W: blueman source: configure-generated-file-in-source config.log W: blueman: copyright-refers-to-versionless-license-file usr/share/common-licenses/GPL -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-wnpp-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
