I have pushed a minimal change to d/watch which uses the new uscan
option repacksuffix.
Regarding d/copyright: The patch 02_Fix_license_issue.patch which is
explained in d/README.Debian should be rather explained in d/copyright.
Thorsten (probably partly wearing his ftpmaster hat) was mentioning that
this is suspicious. The rationale why this text should be rather put
into d/copyright is that it is clearly connected to the copyright
information and this is the file ftpmasters probably inspect first. It
is not a good idea to split this information (specifically without an
explicit hint inside d/copyright refering to d/README.Debian
If I were you I would add an additional paragraph to d/copyright

or something like this.
Regarding the additional examples: It is OK to provide them inside
debian/ dir. I wonder whether you could create a autopkgtest script
using these examples + expected output.
