Main Inclusion Report for mono-addins

Requirements

1. Availability: http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/universe/m/mono-addins; architecture-independent (all).

2. Rationale:

   • Build dependency of tomboy.
   • f-spot links against a bundled version of this library. Promoting it to main will allow f-spot to link against a separate mono-addins package (in fact, Debian is preparing to do just that).

3. Security:

   • No security history.
   • No network activity.

4. Quality assurance:

   • In what situations does the package not work out of the box without configuration ?
   • No debconf questions are asked.

   • Debian bugs: none filed.

   • Maintenance in Debian is regular.

   • Upstream: two stable versions released. Actively maintained in SVN.

   • Upstream bug tracker: three bugs, none of which are critical; one is reportedly fixed in SVN.

   • Hardware: This package does not deal with hardware.

5. Standards compliance:

   • FHS, Debian Policy compliance? - Yes.

   • Debian library packaging guide standards compliance? - Not applicable to Mono libraries.

   • Packaging system: debhelper.
   • Patch system: dpatch.
   • No packaging oddities.

6. Dependencies:

   • cli-common, libc6, mono, gnome-sharp2, gtk-sharp2.
   • All of these are in main.

7. Background information:

   • debian/control provides sufficient information about the general purpose and context of the package.
   • Upstream name: Mono.Addins. It had no different names in the past.
