A couple of things about the package:

0) Please convert the changelog and control files to UTF-8.

1) Please update the download location in the copyright file as that
location no longer exists. A quick search with google reveals
<http://www.staticky.com/software.html>.  You should probably email
upstream since it seems he forgot to post the actual software...  While
you're at it, the page hints at a newer version than what you have
packaged, ask if/where it's available and if so update your package to use
it.

2) Please clean up your debian/rules.  You can remove the unused config
target/section and having a bunch of commented out debhelper calls doesn't
do anyone any good, and actually hurts readability.

3) Do you actually use this program?  If you do or you would like to have
this package in the archive b/c it is easy to package (eg. for NM) fine by
me; otherwise, if you're just trying to fix the bug (for which I thank
you), the easier/better thing might be to just have the package removed
since, as implied by your mail, pppconfig is more powerful.

If all this is ok with you, I will happily sponsor you.
