After having had some dealings with this person on openprojects, I
would recommend a thorough examination of the package he (I'm assuming
it's a he - there is no name anywhere) is 'donating' to the project.

It should be easy to diff the orig.tar.gz with one from troll, and
then look through the Debian diff.

This is probably good practice in any case, and maybe ought to be
mentioned in documentation for Debian 'mentors'.
