Please find the new files here; I am having problems with Debian Mentors:

http://www.ee.iitm.ac.in/~ee03b091/Upload/libitpp_3.10.7-1.dsc

  * remove the useless empty line at the end of changelog.

Done.

  * i just saw you uploaded revison -2. revert the revision to -1 again,
    the bump is useless when the previous revision wasn't uploaded to
    debian.

Done.

  * why priority extra? i think, optional is ok here.

Made it optional.

  * the dev package should not contain the soname, rename it to
    libitpp-dev.

Done.

  * since the documentation is not a huge "stand alone" manual,
    i don't think a dedicated -doc package is justified. just
    include the stuff in the -dev package.

Done.

  * debian/docs is a helper file not prefixed with the package name.
    for consistency reasons, i recommend to rename it do the package
    you want to assign it, otherwise it is automatically assigned to
    the first package listed in control, which makes it less
    error-prone to read the sources.

Done.

    same with debian/manpages.

Done.

  * at the end of the manpage, you wrote:

---snip---
This    manual   page   was   written   by   Kumar   Appaiah   <aku-
mar@ee.iitm.ac.in>, for the Debian project (but may be used by  oth-
ers).
---snapp---

     never do the hyphenation yourself, groff is just takeing care about
     this dynamically itself.

Done.

  * this here:

---snip---
# shared library versions, option 1
version=2.0.5
major=2
---snap---

    in your rules file is not needed, you can remove it.

Done.

  * another tipp about rules: do not use more than multiple empty line
    as a seperator, one is just enough.

Fixed that as well.

the rest is good, if you fix above things, i'll sponsor the package.

Please check that things are fine. Otherwise, I'll get back to you
with necessary changes.

Thanks.

Kumar
