REVU-Tools is a set of scripts to help Debian packages reviewers in their task. It gathers fours scripts: revu-build, revu-orig, revu-report and a hook script for pbuilder, used by revu-build to perform build tests.
Among the information REVU-tools gives are: - Whether the package is a Debian-native - Whether the package contains a usable debian/watch file - Whether new versions of the program are available, using the debian/watch file with uscan - Whether the md5 sums of the upstream tarball and the orig.tar.gz are identical, and whether this is normal or not - Whether there is a diff between the extracted upstream tarball and orig.tar.gz - Whether the package fails to build from source in pbuilder - Whether lintian and linda are happy with this package - Whether running debuild -S -sa on this package generates files in the diff outside of debian/
