No problem.  You will learn that lintian is one of your best friends when
trying to prepare policy conform packages.

I just ralised that the latest version is not using phyutility any more
(for whatever reason).  Just package it if it is interesting for you.

Just a warning: prottest has some other binary jars which are not yet
packaged for Debian and it needs to be sorted out which one are needed
and thus need to be packaged or whether some of them might be dropped.

Feel free to tackle other projects of yours if you might notice that it
is not as simple as expected and the packages of your own agenda might
seem more urgent for your personal work.

Kind regards and thanks for your work on phyutility
