-- NMUs are welcome, but... --

NMUs are welcome.  If you contribute to this package, either by
making an NMU or as a participant in the pkg-xtuple packaging team,
please:

a) commit your work to Git, don't leave it for somebody else to do
b) when your package upload is accepted, tag the commit that you used
   to build the package
c) don't forget to push your commits and tags to alioth
d) if you patched upstream code, send the patch to upstream using a
   Github pull request or email

For more details about the team, please see:

    https://alioth.debian.org/projects/pkg-xtuple/

Our repositories are in collab-maint so you don't need to be a member
of the pkg-xtuple team on alioth before committing to the repositories.

-- Following upstream repositories --

Due to the nature of Git, we have cloned the upstream repositories,
we do the Debian work in branches and we push our branches to alioth.

The upstream developers are active on Github, they use Ubuntu
themselves and they welcome collaboration with the Debian and Ubuntu
communities.  Therefore, anybody making patches against this package
should submit their patch to upstream using a Github pull request or an
email so that we won't have to maintain them under debian/patches

-- Legacy comments concerning tarballs on Sourceforge --

Before September 2015, we would use the upstream tarballs from
Sourceforge or Github, repacking them and putting them in
an independent packaging repository.

The following was used to repack the tarball from upstream:

   find . -name '.DS_Store' -exec rm {} \;
   find . -name '*.o' -exec rm {} \;
   find . -name '*.a' -exec rm {} \;
   find . -exec file {} \; | grep executable | cut -f1 -d: | xargs rm


The following was used to detect non-text artifacts:

   find . -type f -exec file {} \; | \
       egrep -v 'ASCII|XML|Unicode|PNG|empty|8859'

The binary files with .qm extension are translations
of the strings for other languages.  This is a valid file format
used by Qt and they can be managed with some Qt tool
