Final Comment

Hi,

It is accepted, but I would recommend you review the lintian notes around
the use of debhelper which seem simple and reasonable.

Thanks!

W: pgpg source: debhelper-but-no-misc-depends golang-github-johnkerl-pgpg-dev
N: 
N:   The source package uses debhelper, but it does not include ${misc:Depends}
N:   in the given binary package's debian/control entry. Any debhelper command
N:   may add dependencies to ${misc:Depends} that are required for the work
N:   that it does, so recommended best practice is to always add
N:   ${misc:Depends} to the dependencies of each binary package if debhelper is
N:   in use.
N: 
N:   Please refer to the debhelper(7) manual page for details.

N:
W: pgpg source: debhelper-compat-file-is-missing
N: 
N:   The package build-depends on debhelper but does not ship a compat file.
N:   Packages not using an experimental or beta compatibility level may
N:   alternatively Build-Depend on the debhelper-compat virtual package, For
N:   example:
N:   
N:    Build-Depends: debhelper-compat (= 13)
N:   
N:   Please refer to the debhelper documentation on how to create the compat
N:   file and the differences between each compat level.
N: 
N:   Please refer to
N:   https://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-changes/2012/01/msg01335.html and
N:   the debhelper(7) manual page for details.

N: 
N:
W: pgpg: no-manual-page [usr/bin/lexgen-code]
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:
W: pgpg source: package-uses-deprecated-debhelper-compat-version 1
N: 
N:   The debhelper compatibility version used by this package is marked as
N:   deprecated by the debhelper developer. You should really consider using a
N:   newer compatibility version.
N:   
N:   The compatibility version can be set by specifying debhelper-compat (= 12)
N:   in your package's Build-Depends, by the legacy debian/compat file or even
N:   by setting and exporting DH_COMPAT in debian/rules. If it is not set in
N:   either place, debhelper defaults to the deprecated compatibility version
N:   1.
N: 
N:   Please refer to the debhelper(7) manual page for details.
