Hi stefanor, * Why are we picking some random snapshot, rather than the 0.4.0 stable release? -> It's the last snapshot from the stable branch, it contains fixes for bugs, like google results retrieving, p2p fixes..
* bzr-builder.manifest? Was this a daily build? -> Yes, I took the package from my daily build recipe, and edit packaging from it. Should I change some things relating to this? * That's a very odd version number for an initial release. Why the epoch? Is that because of upsteram's debs? What verisons are they using? ->The versioning scheme is done in order to superseede other PPA builds (mine and from others). It's OK if you want to suggest something prettier and better. * What is seeks-experimental? ->It's the experimental branch of seeks, which is packaged in another PPA. * A wrap-and-sort wouldmake the Build-Depends a lot prettier and more manageable -> No problem for changing it. * The description ends with a blank line -> Same as previous point. * The description's bullited list only needs to be indented two spaces. -> Same as previous point. * The description has lots of trailing whitespace -> Same as previous point. * It's generally not necessary to talk about being open source in the description. The ubuntu archive is almost entirely open source :) -> Same as previous point. * wishlist: have a look at DEP5, it's a nice machine-readable format for copyright files. -> Will try to look at it. * NEWS is empty. Do we really want to include it in the binary packages? -> Sure, let's delete it * COPYING is redundant, that's what debian/copyright is for. No need to include it in the binary packages. -> Same as previous point. * Deleting users in maintainer scripts is frowned upon, see http://bugs.debian.org/621833 -> Do you have a tip for me to deal with this better? * Why are we skipping dh_auto_test? -> I don't remember the real reason. Let's do them again. * Urgh, the init and maintainer scripts mix tabs and spaces. -> I will fix this too. Should I change some other things? How do you want me to post the relevant changes and attach them here? Thanks for your review.
