[Bug 319607] [NEW] not yet addressed MIR comments

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

You have been subscribed to a public bug by Matthias Klose (doko):

Binary package hint: jflex

We promoted jflex to main to unblock cut from dependency wait state.

However, mir team had some comments that should be addressed
(https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/jflex/+bug/315403/comments/1)
to finalize the MIR promotion:

Current Ubuntu-specific source doesn't change Maintainer to Ubuntu; I
think we can solve this by syncing 1.4.2-1 from unstable; doko, can you
confirm all changes are in? It seems to from only looking at the
changelog.

dpkg-parsechangelog should be preferred to retrieve the upstream version
from changelog.

debian/copyright should mention the exact version of the license as there's no particular grant on moving to newer versions. I found the license to be a reformated GPL-2 with some reformatting changes.
  A random source file doesn't list a particular version in the grant either, for instance src/JFlex/gui/GridPanelConstraint.java:

There's one exception: examples/binary/StraightStreamReader.java is
version 2 or later.

Stephen Ostermiller doesn't appear in the copyright holders.

Copyright needs to be updated to 2008.

(I also wonder whether you should have default-jdk in Build-Depends
since ant is used in clean as much as during build, but I don't think
this matters too much in practice since you only have an arch: all
package, so build-deps-indep are always installed.)
