I've found, downloaded, and skimmed through your package. (Though
I'm not a user of edb.)

Some somments and patches:

* Build-Depends

debhelper and patch should be moved from Build-Depends-Indep to
Build-Depends because those packages are used at the clean target.

* Standards-Version

Current version is 3.7.2.

* duplicate-conffile

/etc/emacs/site-start.d/50edb.el is marked as conffile duplicately.
dh_installemacsen does enough job, so it should be removed from
`debian/conffiles'.

* copyright

You mentions `Added copyright holder' in changelog, but there is
no change.

* short description

The short description should not begin with an article.

See also Developer's Reference 6.2.2.

* long description

Please add a space to the beginning of `Homepage:'.  (Two spaces
prepending the `Homepage:' line)

See also Developer's Reference 6.2.4.

* emacs-snapshot

Other version of GNU Emacs, emacs-snapshot, is available.

* emacsen-startup

To add the package directory to load-path, debian-pkg-add-load-path-item
should be used.  See also
`/usr/share/doc/emacsen-common/debian-emacs-policy.gz'.

If the package is removed but not purged, the setup should be skipped.

* emacsen-install, emacsen-remove

If flavor is `emacs', don't display messages.

* emacsen-install

Add -q to not load user init files when byte-compiling.

Make *.el symlinks to find the source files from Emacs Help.

xemacs22 (not yet available) should be skipped.

I've created the attached patch for the above things.

Other things are:

* emacsen-install

It's better to use log file in emacsen-install to suppress
redundant messages.

Examples:
/usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/install/debian-el
/usr/lib/emacsen-common/packages/install/devscripts-el

* new upstream version

As mentioned in bug#303785, new upstream version was released.
However, the upstream site
http://www.glug.org/people/ttn/software/edb/
seems no longer exist.

The announce of `EDB 1.27 available' was posted on July 13, 2006
at gnu-emacs-sources@gnu.org, but the file cannot be downloaded.

Though edb-1.25 is downloadable from gentoo mirrors, such as
http://gentoo.osuosl.org/distfiles/edb-1.25.tar.gz

Does anyone know the new upstream site?

* patch

This package uses the patch command directly.  Please consider
migrating to the patch system, such as quilt or dpatch.

Thanks,
