I don't know, the patch doesn't solve the issue, but we can just not care, it is a useless warning, and the package is already in the new queue

Hi, nothing to worry about, DebOMatic is a service where we upload build tries, so I did just upload a version for testing on amd64.

I uploaded right now a new version, that will be likely be the one in the archive.

Piuparts seems to be giving a problem in -data package, but I guess this is a false positive

the only real warning is:
dpkg-shlibdeps: warning: package could avoid a useless dependency if debian/fet/usr/bin/fet debian/fet/usr/bin/fet-cl were not linked against libpthread.so.0 (they use none of the library's symbols)

I guess you want to fix it, you link pthread but you don't use symbols of it.

You use QThread, and it should already link threads internal
(or I could use wl-asneeded flag to strip it )

Updating it right now, thanks!

actually I can wait for the new release, they aren't important warnings, and the version is not even in Debian unstable
(it is in the new queue)

cheers!

wonderful! you rock!

Sorry, the desktop file actually comes from Debian, not from Upstream...

https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/fet.git/tree/debian/fet.desktop

well you might want to start from there and add some english keywords...
(not too many, just 4-5 keywords are fine!)

thanks a lot!

Hi, I guess the keyword missing is
"Keywords"

Hi Guys, I would like to report some typos in the source code

N:   
N:    If the string containing the spelling error is translated with the help
N:    of gettext or a similar tool, please fix the error in the translations
N:    as well as the English text to avoid making the translations fuzzy. With
