[Bug 419036] Re: [MIR] speech-dispatcher

[Martin Pitt]

Luke, please subscribe to speech-dispatcher bug reports (package bug
contact), since this will probably need a fair amount of maintenance and
cause some bug reports after karmic's release.

Init script shouldn't run in levels 0 and 6. (update-rc.d and LSB
header)

postrm removes system user on remove, which is usually a bad idea,
especially if there are any files owned by "speech-dispatcher". If at
all, it should only happen on purge, but it's best to drop it
completely.

Lots of patches that piled up; you said that upstream was dead, did you
manage to get upstream commit rights, so that you can do changes
directly upstream? Otherwise this will quickly get difficult to manage?

Nitpick: (not a MIR blocker)
W: speech-dispatcher: postinst-has-useless-call-to-ldconfig
Usually caused by dh_makeshlibs being too eager and picking up stuff in /usr/lib/speech-dispatcher. This usually needs an "DEB_DH_MAKESHLIBS_ARGS = -X/usr/lib/speech-dispatcher".

Otherwise this looks ok. It's a significant maintenance issue, but we
are committed to it.

Can gnome-speech go to universe when this gets promoted? Please change
the seeds accordingly already.
