Ahhh. That's convenient.

I usually remove the #MISSINGs. I do not see any practical relevance.

The .la file is missing intentionally and the missing manpage seems to be
a false positive.

You mean how that is done in general or for this specific package?
I've seen you added debian/test dir. The scripts we are using in our
autopkgtest template you can easily run the run-unit-tests script on
your local machine which simplifies debugging. If this hint is not
sufficient please be more verbose what help you might need.
Thanks a lot for your work on this. Its now probably time to get
rid of all those murmurhash code copies in our packages.
Kind regards
Andreas.
