RFS: jython 2.2.1-2.1
 

While working on logkit -> excalibur-logkit migration I stumbled upon
jython package which has few problems as per latest conventions for
java packaging. I have fixed these problems along with some lintian
errors/warnings and uploaded the package to mentors.debian.net. The
package maintainer is listed on lowthresholdnmu page. So this package
can be uploaded immediately.

Please sponsor the package -

The maintainer is on lowthresholdnmu, but that does not absolve you from the
rest of the NMU procedure[0], namely, filing the patches in the BTS against the
relative bugs, contacting the maintainer directly with your intention to NMU
and not making changes that don't fix actual bugs.

Having said that, the upload looks good, but can you please do the appropriate
paperwork first.

Yes, and it's definitely my mistake for sponsoring without checking the bug. I
cc:ed Nicolas on the upload and here again. Nicolas, my apologies for the
over-zealous upload.

Thank you,
Tony

Considering that the maintainer did not reply to bugs in question for
long time, I assumed it was ok to seek sponsors directly. My mistake.
I will be carefully follow the procedure next time.

By the way the changes I did fixed only fixed mostly lintian
errors/warnings. Should that be avoided when doing NMU?

You should not be fixing lintian warnings for the sake of it, NMU procedure
says "only fix filed bugs". In the case of moving ant to build-depends, for
example, that is a genuine bug, so even though there's no bug number it's ok

Ok. I will keep this in mind.

No problem. I have to admit I wasn't very active these last weeks.
Thanks for your NMU.

I actually hoped to upload jython 2.5 rapidly and didn't bother to
work on 2.1. So your upload is appreciated as it fixes the current
issues until I upload version 2.5.
