I would normally ask for it to be removed. It causes confusion because
changes happen in debian/ for any given gdal release to produce .deb
versions 1.3.1-1, 1.3.1-2, etc. The debian/ dir in the release will
never be up-to-date with respect to that release.

But this is going to be a team maintained package and it seems sentiment
is that it's fine as-is.

Thanks for the offer,
Steve
