I've had a look at this.
First thing lintian noticed is the CVS directories in the source. I
pulled the upstream source distribution and noticed them in there,
too. Weird. I'd suggest putting the following into debian/rules
clean target:
find . -name CVS -print 0 | xargs -0 rm -rf
Next, there's no manpage for cableidx.
Finally, there's an unusual packaging scheme with a bunch
of stuff under /usr/lib/CableSwig including a "bin" and "share"
directories. These should be fixed.
It looks like cableswig comes bundled with gccxml. There's already
been a request to package gcc-xml (http://bugs.debian.org/189927). Is
the gccxml bundled with cableswig unmodified and usable as-is? If so,
presumably it should be split out, package separately, and cableswig
should simply depend or build-depend upon it.
Thoughts?
