Indeed an initial package is already there. I applied some patch, but lintian still complain about a rpath for mpi. Apparently rpath is needed to go pass a lintian error already...Could you please elaborate on what that means ? Is this something upstream might be able to help with ?
This is something that can be done in debian/rules. Normally you can just delete the rpath. I would say that the use of its own sqlite library is more serious. I am not really sure whether the Debian package can/should be used. They provide a library consisting of one big file. Due to better compiler optimization this should gain some performance.
I might have missed some of the previous discussions. Is there a reason why upstream provides its own debian directory? If it is of any use, maybe it can be renamed? Otherwise svn-buildpackage would mix everything together and lintian complains about lots of template files.
