Alright, the package builds. There are minor problems that I have mentioned to the upstream author but that can easily be corrected. The first one is the omission of a necessary qt library atop of the qtbase5-dev [0] (for this I have sent him a pull request). And the second one is a problem with the file used by qmake to generate a makefile. The file, called "Bandage.pro", has a set of INCLUDE variables that result in a build failure when using the generated makefile. I noticed the upstream author has fixed that in the dev branch, so I just mentioned it to him via an existing request for a new release [1].
I think the first problem can be easily fixed on our side by including the proper library in the debian/control - Build-Depends field. For the second problem, I guess a patch is in order?
Thanks for your help,
Cedric
