Hi Laszlo, > I have prepared the package libmath-vector-real-perl in git at git://git.debian.org/pkg-perl/packages/libmath-vector-real-perl.git . > Please have a look and sponsor this package for me and Shen. other people seem to be busy, so I'll be the first to comment... A few thoughts: - DM-Upload-Allowed is not used in pkg-perl (and only ever added by or at the request of a sponsor, I believe). Instead, when the distribution in debian/changelog is set to 'unstable' from 'UNRELEASED' (e.g. by 'dch -r'), the package will come up in the topmost section of http://pet.debian.net/pkg-perl/pet.cgi and someone(tm) with upload permission will have a look at it and upload the package or return it to UNRELEASED with TODO usually within 24 hours. Details about changelog handling at http://pkg-perl.alioth.debian.org/changelog.html - you state that you're using dh compat level 7 "when Ubuntu Precise becomes LTS" -- this has happened, no? That said, keeping it at 7 for backporting purposes is ok. - the official copyright-format 1.0 URL is: http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/ - the license is "same as Perl", that includes GPL-1+ in addition to Artistic ("Artistic or GPL-1+") - the short package description should be a noun phrase, as in /libath-vector-real-perl is a (.*)/ - README doesn't include any useful information for Debian users and thus should not be shipped in /usr/share/doc/ - I still get lintian errors, one of which is about a spelling error, which should be fixed by a patch and forwarded upstream (I run 'lintian -IE --pedantic --show-overrides --color auto') Welcome to pkg-perl!
