1- It would be nice if it integrated with GNOME/KDE menus by registering itself as an application (see http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Standards_2fdesktop_2dentry_2dspec) I do this in the Debian packages, so that users don't have to do it manually (or using Smeg: http://www.realistanew.com/projects/smeg/)
does it mean that we can use the files you created and add them to the NessusClient package?
2- The software is GPL, but links to OpenSSL, it should add an exception in the COPYING file something like:
done.
3- The COPYING file is out of date (uses the old FSF address, it should use the following address " 51 Franklin St, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA"
done.
5.- The User Manual compilation and installation is not included into the main Makefile.
so far it was intentional. Same is true for i18n. Not sure whether to change it?
6.- It would be nice if the TeX file generated from LyX was distributed with the source package, that way packagers could use it to generate the ps/html versions. Notice that there is no way to "automatically" have LyX reconfigure itself from the command line (in order to retrieve TeX formats installed) so it is not easy to have that compiled automatically and distributed with binary packages (either with the client or as a separate 'nessusclient-doc' package)
hm, not sure whether I understand you here. E.g. with "lyx -e latex users-manual.lyx" you can create a latex file easily.
9.- The source is missing an 'AUTHORS' file to list the main authors of the code... I've reviewed all the (c) statements in the code and could provide a list of authors, if you want one.
Done.
BTW, it's rather nice that this client has i18n support. I'll try to get around and provide a Spanish translation for it if time permits.
note, that it is not the full automized routines like the autotools usually provide.
I have Debian packages ready, still have to test them, though, but will send an e-mail to the list once they are (semi-ready)
I am looking forward to them ... :-)
Best
