The table will be updated with columns for the status of each source package, bugs filed, bugs closed and other data during the progress of the audit.

== Legend ==

Once the audit is in progress, the following tags will be assigned to each source package in the table:

 * Test - the package is currently being tested as part of the audit.
 * Bug - cross-building support bug is open, number links to the bug report.
 * NMU - a delayed NMU has been uploaded to unstable (bug number included).
 * Tools - some support already included, other changes needed in emdebian-tools.
 * Chain - requires changes in packages other than itself or emdebian-tools (bug number included).
 * Wait - awaiting processing in the audit.
 * Vendor - awaiting possible support for DEB_VENDOR for remaining patches.
 * Done - all stages of the audit complete.

Crush 2.0 will then be built from the audited packages in stages - core packages, Xorg, Gtk+ and finally applications.

(The sequence of the audit will not necessarily follow those stages - packages that I maintain myself will be completed asap and some packages have already included patches for cross-build support.)

== Changes needed in the toolset ==

When a source package is tagged with status '''Tools''', the most common reason is that the Emdebian Crush patches for the package still contain lines to remove calls to dh_installman or similar programs. i.e. the cross-build succeeds but Crush is waiting for emdebian-tools to reimplement the build so that docs can be removed without having to patch the package - this is expected to be done by using the current scripts supporting Emdebian Grip.

== Aims of the audit ==

 * incorporate as much of the current patch set into the Debian package as possible before the freeze starts for squeeze.
 * retain only those patches that are essential for achieving the small installation size of Crush.
 * use DEB_VENDOR support to implement these changes, if possible.
 * improve emdebian-tools to make cross-building Debian packages easier.
 * as a result of all the above, allow Crush to be available for multiple architectures in squeeze.

Emdebian Code Audit

Emdebian Crush 1.0 uses a lot of patches to be able to build. This Code Audit is concerned with implementing as many of those patches as possible into the relevant Debian packages.
