But this was no big problem, I got the sources from upstream and the
diff is readable. However I did not find wmnetload on
msmtp.sourceforge.net as your debian/copyright files claimed.
Crash:

libdockapp1 there is no point in listing it in Build-Depends.

There seems to be a misunderstanding, Non-US is not for illegal
software.
You'll need a sid system for testing anyway, if your main system runs
woody get a gnutls7 backport, e.g.
