What was the last version you maintained? 1.01b-7 still has you listed as

Ask the new maintainer to do an upload, even if nothing's changed.

Besides, a depends line like below:
Depends: libc6, libc6.1
is only possible if the libc6 is hardcoded into the depends line of the
control file, which is WRONG (I've seen a number of packages which do
that, and always report a bug when I do; the ${shlibs:Depends} is enough).
