Hi Alexandre, hi Carlos,

I need to correct myself and unfortunately lower expectations: opensurge will be a package newly introduced to Debian, so it has to successfully go through the NEW queue [1] procedure which takes additional time. I.e., chances are low Open Surge may make it into bullseye, we need to see how slow or fast things will work out. My bad, I'm not used to upload to the NEW queue.

@Carlos: I further cleaned up packaging and documented lintian infos/warnings + according overrides. To save disk space in the archive, I split opensurge into a small architecture dependent package opensurge and an architecture independent package opensurge-data. This should make ftpmasters' lives easier for a smooth NEW queue transition. Please check the changes for any mistakes.

Cheers,

Bruno
