Hi!

The package is missing both the Homepage and Vcs-* fields in
debian/control. The homepage is still available [1] even though
it does not carry the latest version which is available in Debian.

As for the Vcs-*, those are always very handy to have when backporting
or forking the package or writing patches. It might also be a good
idea to update the copyright file to the new format 1.0 when doing
these updates.

Thanks for the recent updates to lrzsz.

Adrian

Hi,

Homepage field is already present. As for the Vcs fields all information
I can find point to tirka.ohse.de, which resolves to 192.168.2.3.

Do you have better information?

Martin

Oops, sorry, I completely missed that. Was probably thinking of minicom.

Those fields are supposed to point to the repository where you as the
maintainer keep the packaging sources, see here [1]. See also one of
my packages, fs-uae [2], for example.
