Hello,

we have refurbished the debian packaging files for OpenSER. It generates 
only one set of packages at a time (default with tls support). The one 
with no TLS can be build on demand by the users which want to. Only the 
default packages has to be taken in consideration for including in 
Debian distribution. I have checked with lintian an got rid of some 
warnings.

I uploaded the new packages at:
http://www.openser.org/downloads/snapshots/openser-1.0.1-1/debian-sid/

Still some warnings are there, but I think they are acceptable. If you 
have some ideas to skip them, please let me know.

* W: openser source: maintainer-script-lacks-debhelper-token 
debian/openser.postinst

- debhelper is not used since the user is asked interactively during 
installation whether to start openser service or not at boot
 
* W: openser source: not-using-po-debconf

- lintian detects usage of templates and expects some 'po' files - not 
sure it is the case here

* W: openser source: native-package-with-dash-version

- this is because the package version contains a debian revision version

* W: openser: binary-without-manpage openser_gen_ha1
* W: openser: binary-without-manpage openser_mysql.sh
* W: openser: binary-without-manpage openser_postgresql.sh
* W: openser: binary-without-manpage openserctl
* W: openser: binary-without-manpage openserunix

- all these are shell scripts without manpage

* W: openser: package-contains-upstream-install-documentation 
usr/share/doc/openser/INSTALL.gz

- the INSTALL file is installed - has some information about configuring 
openser with persistent storage support

Anyone willing to become sponsor for OpenSER packages?

Cheers,
Daniel
