Bug#673087: RFS: the-powder-toy/78.1-1 [ITP] -- Physics sandbox game

[Aditya Vaidya]

Hello Benoit,

Thanks for reviewing my package, and I'm sorry about not committing the
newest .orig.tar.bz2 in pristine-tar and pushing it. Upstream just released
a new stable version today, and I've just committed the latest tarball to
the 'pristine-tar' branch and pushed it, along with an updated Debian
packaging, to [1]. I've fixed most of the lintian warnings that you had
posted about, but I couldn't replicate these three warnings with running
the command "lintian -I -E --pedantic ../the-powder-toy_78.1-0~ppa2.dsc
../the-powder-toy_78.1-0~ppa2_source.changes". Here are warnings I couldn't
find:

  W: the-powder-toy source: unknown-field-in-dsc original-maintainer
  I: the-powder-toy source: debian-watch-file-is-missing
  I: the-powder-toy: spelling-error-in-binary
usr/lib/games/the-powder-toy/powder targetted targeted

Yes, I did use the tag 'debian/78.1-0ppa2' (I just changed the version from
'78.1-0~ppa2' to '78.1-1' and then submitted it) and still I couldn't
replicate the results. As I said, I fixed all but one of the Lintian errors
I could find in the latest version. Upstream uses a strange tagging name
format: 'build<#>', where <#> is a number (currently 183), so I decided
against creating a watch file for two reasons:

1. uscan would find a new tag and think it's stable when, in fact, it's a
beta release
2. I don't version the package that way, and nor does upstream; we use
'81.1', not '183'.

Since I've fixed all of the errors I could find and fix, should I make
another upload to Mentors, or will you review the package as it is in [1]?

Thanks for your consideration.
