[Bug 913934] Re: [Packaging New Software] Example does not build

 

As suggested in https://code.launchpad.net/~kinggoddard/ubuntu-
packaging-guide/913934-fix/+merge/91773 it might make more sense to use
an example which is less likely to break, ie GNU Hello.

Title:
  [Packaging New Software] Example does not build

Status in Ubuntu Packaging Guide:
  Triaged

Bug description:
  Regarding the walk-through at
  http://developer.ubuntu.com/packaging/html/packaging-new-
  software.html;

  For kqrcode 0.4, the archive appears to have file corruption.

  Going with version 0.6 instead, the user will be presented with an error that "qrcodec.h" is missing. It must be extracted from the following archive and placed in the kqrcode source dir.
  http://ie.archive.ubuntu.com/sourceforge/k/project/kq/kqrcode/KQRCode-dev/kqrcode-dev-0.6.0.tar.gz

  This is technically a kqrcode bug, but all of this info should
  probably be noted here as well.

  On a side note, kqrcode appears to be a moribund project. Perhaps a
  better-maintained example package could be substituted in later
  revisions?
