Ah, well, will look, but that's no reject ground imho, because a) it's pbuilder
and not sbuild and b) it's a *experimental* package. The experimental buildds
would have told me that, too.

Thanks, will change the (c) to 2005-2008

MySQL AB *is* Sun. so (c) MySQL AB, Sun Microssystems get both.

Those W are *all* harmless. Most are

patch-system-but-direct-changes-in-diff

due to cmake. If you tell me how to make it clean up
properly, please do. When those changes get lost somewhen
it does not matter at all since cmake will create them again.

dpatch-missing-description: oh, missing description: how serious.

debian-rules-ignores-make-clean-error

if you tell me how to sanely ignore cmake clean errors (when there was no cmake)
build before? Also just minor issue.

out-of-date-standards-version 3.7.3 (current is 3.8.0)

well, also minor. And  that's what dh_make crates. And afair there's not that much
important changes for "normal" packages or shlibs.

This is a *experimental* upload, so I of course don't fix everything yet.

To the E:

version-substvar-for-external-package libmysqlcppconn-dev -> libmysqlcppconn1

Ok, bug. forget to comment it out. Will be fixed.

Grüße/Regards,

René
