Excellent, always good to see people adopting packages. Some comments:
* debian/control: Perhaps change the short description to mention
home automation?
* debian/rules: you might want to use this to install:
make install DESTDIR=$(CURDIR)/debian/bottlerocket
* debian/rules: might want to turn off DH_VERBOSE :)
* debian/rules: DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE and DEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE are not
passed to ./configure
* debian/rules: just make distclean should be enough, shouldn't
it?
* debian/copyright: download location points to a page that says:
"Neil Cherry has taken over maintenance of BottleRocket; please
visit his site at http://www.linuxha.com/";
* debian/copyright needs a small rework according to:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce/2006/03/msg00023.html
* might want to remove the FILES and COMPILING sections of the
upstream README, and ask upstream to split them out into
README.build or something.
* hmm, the rocket_launcher homepage seems broken
* did you send the patches/manpages upstream?
* don't forget to acknowledge the NMUs by closing the bugs fixed
in NMUs with the appropriate version:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?pkg=bottlerocket#_3_4_5
* please review the debtags on your package:
http://debtags.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/edit.cgi?pkg=bottlerocket
