Hi,

I can't sponsor the package, but I have a few comments.

  * Please use ${binary:Version} and ${source:Version} in preference to
    ${Source-Version} in debian/control.
  * I would like some more "meat" in the descriptions.
  * Lose the extra comments in debian/watch.
  * Do you want to ship .a and .la? Some packages are choosing to get
    rid of them to avoid certain headaches. Obviously if
    packages/programs want to link statically to the libs then ship it.

The packaging looks ok otherwise. I haven't installed the packages and
tested them though.

Does anybody else have an opinion on .a and .la files in packages?

James
