[Bug 1421711] Re: [needs-packaging] ubuntu-mate-meta

[Adam Stokes]

So this needs a little more work:

I can't comment on the use of germinate, maybe someone else can provide
some insight on that.

debian/control
- Update standards version
- Update build-depends
- Recommend addition of VCS https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/best-pkging-practices.html#bpp-vcs

The germinate one is the main thing I'm not 100% about.

Thanks
Adam

Title:
  [needs-packaging] ubuntu-mate-meta

Status in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Ubuntu MATE is an Ubuntu derivative that provides the MATE desktop
  environment. MATE is the continuation of GNOME2.

  Ubuntu MATE has been given the green light by the Ubuntu Technical
  Board and Canonical IS have confirmed sufficient storage is available
  to host the Ubuntu MATE images. As a prerequisite to integrating
  Ubuntu MATE into the official build infrastructure some Ubuntu MATE
  packages (currently hosted in a PPA) need to be uploaded to the
  official Ubuntu archive.

    * ubuntu-mate-meta provides the essential meta packages required to
  install Ubuntu MATE.

  URL: https://ubuntu-mate.org
  License: GPL, LGPL, CC-BY-SA
  Notes: This package is currently linked to the Ubuntu MATE PPAs so that I can build a distribution outside the official Canonical infrastructure. So, I appreciate this PPA integration (probably?) needs removing.

  The source for the packages are available from the following Launchpad
  repositories:
