DFSG NEW review for ruby-schematist version 1.1.0-1

Summary

Licensing is DFSG-compliant and debian/copyright is accurate: Yes
Packaging is of good quality: Yes
Issues: 0 blocker, 0 important, 0 minor
debian/watch: version 5
debian/copyright: machine-readable
Scan before the review: nothing found

Licensing

The tree is entirely plain Ruby with a single upstream licence, the MIT/Expat text in LICENSE, and the DEP-5 debian/copyright says so accurately: Files: * names the sole upstream holder (Daniel Friis), the debian/* stanza names the packager, and the full Expat text is included. No non-free terms, binary blobs, vendored code or unclear-provenance files exist; the prescan found every copyright holder it could see named in debian/copyright.

Packaging

Standard gem2deb packaging: compat 14, dh $@ --buildsystem=ruby --with ruby, DH_RUBY = --gem-install (a documented dh_ruby option), DEP-5 copyright, 3.0 (quilt) source format, salsa VCS fields, upstream metadata, gbp config and Testsuite: autopkgtest-pkg-ruby (whose implied test control is defined by the autopkgtest spec). No patches, maintainer scripts or generated binaries; dependencies are satisfied by the archive, and Standards-Version 4.7.4 is current against Policy 4.7.4.1. Nothing a sponsor would require changed.

Issues

None.

Verified ◂

All 19 files in the tree were read or listed: LICENSE, README.md, schematist.gemspec, 14 files under lib/, and 10 files under debian/. Only plain Ruby sources; no .so, .class, .jar, minified JS/CSS, archives, PDFs or other build products.
LICENSE is the MIT/Expat text with Copyright (c) 2025 Daniel Friis; schematist.gemspec declares s.licenses = ["MIT"]; debian/copyright's Files: * stanza names Daniel Friis and Expat, and the full licence text is reproduced. A tree-wide grep for Copyright/(C)/©/SPDX/Licensed under/GNU/Apache/MPL/public domain/All rights reserved found only LICENSE and debian/copyright.
debian/copyright Files: debian/* (2026 Simon Quigley, Expat) correctly overrides the catch-all for the packaging, and includes the required full Expat text; no file requires another licence stanza.
The prescan's author check scanned 19 files and reported every holder found is named in debian/copyright; it listed no file for follow-up. README's Originally created by Daniel Friis and gemspec s.authors (Daniel Friis, Carmine Paolino) are consistent with the single upstream copyright notice; no separate copyright claim exists for the second author.
debian/control: debhelper-compat 14 and gem2deb (>= 2.2.8~); the archive has gem2deb 2.2.10, so the versioned Build-Depends is satisfiable. At compat 14 dh_gencontrol adds relationship substvars itself, so the binary stanza having no Depends field is not a fault (checked with the debhelper tool).
export DH_RUBY = --gem-install and GEM2DEB_TEST_RUNNER = --check-dependencies are the documented gem2deb/dh_ruby mechanisms (dh_ruby(1), ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES and --gem-install).
require "json" needs no ruby-json dependency: json 2.7.2 is shipped as a default gem by libruby3.3 (json-2.7.2.gemspec in /usr/lib/ruby/gems/3.3.0/specifications/default, /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ruby/3.3.0/json/ext).
Testsuite: autopkgtest-pkg-ruby has an implied control file defined by the autopkgtest specification (gem2deb-test-runner --autopkgtest), so the absence of debian/tests/ is correct.
debian/source/format is 3.0 (quilt); there is no debian/patches/ and no debian/*.maintscript or maintainer scripts. changelog is unstable, version 1.1.0-1, signed by Simon Quigley; gbp.conf, salsa-ci.yml and debian/upstream/metadata are conventional.
Standards-Version 4.7.4 has the same first two components as the installed Policy 4.7.4.1, so it is current.
schematist.gemspec is marked automatically generated by gem2tgz; this is the normal gem2deb source-preparation step from the .gem metadata, and the modifiable Ruby sources are present under lib/, so it is not a missing-preferred-form issue.
uscan found the packaged version as the newest upstream release (upstream 1.1.0, packaged 1.1.0).

Not confirmed ◂

No build or autopkgtest run (not permitted in this review); nothing in the tree indicates a missing input or an unsatisfiable dependency.

Proposed changes ◂

None.
