A few suggestions:
1. I personally don’t see the point of including the history of the
ubuntu versions in d/changelog.
2. Until you’re ready to upload, leave the distribution as UNRELEASED.
`dch` (and `dch -r` to release) should do this automatically, but
you’ll need to change it manually since the entry already exists
(I think).
3. Bump d/compat up to 10; debhelper 10 is available in backports.
4. Change Vcs-Git to be https too (and in fact I believe it’s currently
wrong; if you’re using the git:// protocol, the /git/ should not be
included in the URL).
5. If you change to compat 10, you can drop the --parallel, since it’s
now the default.
6. Does Release include debugging information? I thought there was
RelWithDebInfo or something similar for that? Please make sure
debugging information is included; dh_strip will strip it from the
package and create an automatic scram-dbgsym for it (which should
not be mentioned in d/control), so there are debugging symbols for
those who want it, but no increase in size for those who don’t.
7. d/watch doesn’t look like the suggestion for GitHub in uscan(1);
perhaps this works, but I’m not a uscan expert.

James
