I have a few more comments in addition to George's. Unfortunately I
cannot sponsor the package either.
* You make extensive changes to the upstream source in your .diff.gz,
would you not prefer to switch to a patch system so that they can be
handled more cleanly? In fact there is a debian/patch directory,
what is this used for?
* Why is your upload going to testing-security?
* You should close you ITA bug in the changelog entry. You should also
mention that there is a new maintainer.
* The standards version is very out of date, you should update it and
make any necessary changes.
* There are multiple copyright holders to mention in debian/copyright
when you update it.
* Can you sort out the formatting in README.Debian please?
* See the output of uscan --report-status
uscan warning: debian/watch is an obsolete version 1 watchfile;
please upgrade to a higher version
(see uscan(1) for details).
* Sort out the formatting of your Depends: and Build-Depends lines to
remove some spurious lintian warnings. There should be spaces after
commas, and around pipes (|).
