Bug Description

Binary package hint: ardour

The driver for the Frontier Design Tranzport DAW controller (libardour_tranzport.so) is missing in the current build of Ardour.

Steps to reproduce bug:
- install current Ardour package
- look in /usr/lib/ardour2/surfaces/
- no libardour_tranzport.so there

Maybe libusb-dev missing on the build system?

"Disabled building Tranzport code because libusb could not be found"

Hi,

Couple of things to mention about your change:

    + Put Ubuntu MOTU Developers as Maintainer and Debian Team maintainer as
     XSBC-Original-Maintainer.

There is no need to mention this in the changelog as it is required of all packages. Doing the change itself is fine, though.

    + Renamed www-browser as w3m

This is wrong. The www-browser package just says that the user must have some browser installed. We can keep this as is.

    + Bump Standars-Version to 3.8.

There is no need to do this on packages we get from Debian - it creates unnecessary delta.

The main change looks correct, though. Thanks for your work there. I've asked the Debian team whether this can be included in their package for the next upload so hopefully we can sync then. Can you fix the problems I mentioned above and submit a new debdiff? Thanks!

Uploading. Please submit the change back to Debian (you can use the submittodebian tool from ubuntu-dev-tools to do this) and then link the resulting bug to this one so we can track the change. Thanks for your contribution.
