Thank you for your work.
Since Moritz isn't a DD, anyone willing to NMU based on his work?
I checked the interdiff, and
- I did not verify that the new .orig.tar.gz is indeed genuine
- it should use NMU-type version numbering, and mention it's an NMU
- the new copyright file should be fixed to do have a newline at the end,
otherwise it looks okay
- the following duplicates the call to fix_www_data_perm for
/var/cache/bugzilla, and in addition, this change should be mentioned in the
changelog referring to a bugreport (I now cannot check the validitiy of this
change since I don't see why this is changed)

Otherwise, it looks okay to me, though I didn't test the package at all.
