deb install complains

[passenger94]

ubuntu 14.04, deb installer complains with :

Lintian check results for ~/GeanyWS/linux-shoes/Ytm-app.deb: E: ytm: maintainer-name-missing [email protected] Use of uninitialized value $name in pattern match (m//) at /usr/share/perl5/Lintian/Check.pm line 203.

Otherwise all went well and app is launching from Ytm-app dir

Thanks for giving it a try. I don't know much about deb or rpm internals and I'm not convinced that fpm is always correct. if you look at the fpm terminal output it seems to think -m is correct however as you said lintian Ytm-app.deb reports.

E: ytm: no-copyright-file
E: ytm: extended-description-is-empty
E: ytm: maintainer-name-missing [email protected]
Use of uninitialized value $name in pattern match (m//) at /usr/share/perl5/Lintian/Check.pm line 203.
W: ytm: unknown-section Office
W: ytm: non-standard-dir-perm usr/ 0775 != 0755
W: ytm: non-standard-dir-perm usr/local/ 0775 != 0755

if fpm has the ability to for copyright file, and extended description, that would be nice.

Now I know more ;-) the maintainer format is name <user@domain> The < and > are important.

I thought I should file a feature request for fpm to handle the copyright file. jordansissel/fpm#1045 (comment) - Gotta love the internet.
