RFS: RSyntaxTextArea (2nd try, updated)
 

Dear mentors,

I am still looking for a sponsor for my package "rsyntaxtextarea" (also
updated to new upstream release).

* Package name : RSyntaxTextArea
Version : 1.5.1
Upstream Author : Robert Futrell
* URL : http://fifesoft.com/rsyntaxtextarea/
* License : LGPL
Programming Lang: Java
Description : A Java library for the syntax highlighting text editor

It builds these binary packages:
librsyntaxtextarea-java - Java library for syntax highlighting text
component
librsyntaxtextarea-java-doc - Java library for syntax highlighting text
component (documentation)

The package appears to be lintian clean.
The upload would fix these bugs: 613585.

My motivation for maintaining this package is: It is a dependency of
Syntax Plugin for SQuirreL SQL Client that I am trying to package for
Debian.

The package can be found on mentors.debian.net:
- URL: http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/r/rsyntaxtextarea/
- dget
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/r/rsyntaxtextarea/rsyntaxtextarea_1.5.1-1.dsc

Debian Java SVN repository:
Vcs-Svn: svn://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-java/trunk/rsyntaxtextarea
Vcs-Browser: http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-java/trunk/rsyntaxtextarea/

I would be glad if someone uploaded this package for me.

Kind regards
Vladimir Kotov

Hi

It mostly looks good, I only have couple of comments. You licensed the
debian packaging (incl. patches) as GPL-2. This means that upstream
cannot accept your patches without bumping their license to GPL-2, which
will make them less likely to accept patches from us. Personally I
would recommend using the same terms as upstream itself, but otherwise
please make d/patches/* under LGPL-2.1+, so they can take patches from us.

Secondly the license of rsyntaxtextarea (I hate typing that >.>) is
LGPL-2.1+ (it has the "or any later" clause).

As far as I can tell, rsyntaxtextarea has not been uploaded to Debian
yet, so debian/changelog should only be entry (only with the "* Initial
release"-line). Though if you have had it rsyntaxtextarea downloadable
from an unofficial APT-repository (e.g. a PPA) or your website, let me
know and we keep both entries.

Last, there is a new standards version 3.9.2 (lintian might not warn
about it because the date line in d/changelog is older than the release
date of the new policy).

I have updated to LGPL-2.1+ both for upstream source and debian/*.
Thanks for clarifying licensing issues to me.

Yes, I have had the package downloadable from PPA.

I have updated standards version to 3.9.2 and refreshed date
of the last entry in d/changelog.

Uploaded, thanks for your contribution to Debian. Since this is a new
package it will end up in the NEW queue for a second review by the FTP
masters.

I updated the changelog to explicitly mention which version was the
first to enter Debian, other than that it was uploaded as is. The
change was committed the SVN and it was also tagged.
