Final Comment

Hi,

The package is accepted, but please review the Lintian report, specifically
where the documentation fetches an image from the internet. That image should be
brought into the package and the documentation adjust to point to the local
version.

Thanks!

N:
W: opencc: no-manual-page [usr/bin/opencc]
N: 
N:   Each binary in /usr/bin, /usr/sbin, /bin, /sbin or /usr/games should have
N:   a manual page
N:   
N:   Note that though the man program has the capability to check for several
N:   program names in the NAMES section, each of these programs should have its
N:   own manual page (a symbolic link to the appropriate manual page is
N:   sufficient) because other manual page viewers such as xman or tkman don't
N:   support this.
N:   
N:   If the name of the manual page differs from the binary by case, man may be
N:   able to find it anyway; however, it is still best practice to match the
N:   exact capitalization of the executable in the manual page.
N:   
N:   If the manual pages are provided by another package on which this package
N:   depends, Lintian may not be able to determine that manual pages are
N:   available. In this case, after confirming that all binaries do have manual
N:   pages after this package and its dependencies are installed, please add a
N:   Lintian override.
N: 
N:   Please refer to Manual pages (Section 12.1) in the Debian Policy Manual
N:   for details.

N: 
N:   This package creates a potential privacy breach by fetching data from an
N:   external website at runtime. Please remove these scripts or external HTML
N:   resources.
N:   
N:   Please replace any scripts, images, or other remote resources with
N:   non-remote resources. It is preferable to replace them with text and links
N:   but local copies of the remote resources are also acceptable as long as
N:   they don't also make calls to remote services. Please ensure that the
N:   remote resources are suitable for Debian main before making local copies
N:   of them.

O: opencc source: dependency-is-not-multi-archified libopencc-dev depends on libopencc1.3 (multi-arch: no)
N: 
N:   The package is Multi-Arch "same", but it depends on a package that is
N:   neither Multi-Arch "same" nor "foreign".
