I am fairly inexperienced with docbook and python policy, but here are a few remarks that I hope make sense: - the package adds a Makefile on '/usr/share/dblatex/tests/mathml/' - I'm not sure the lintian override for the changelog line length is necessary; you could just mention "bug # on the sourceforge tracker". Using the override could mask a future line length issue, and even though this is certainly something minor, I personally don't think it's worth it. - the wrapper in /usr/bin seems strange, isn't there a better way to implement this? The way I see it, it makes the script in /usr/share/dblatex a bit redundant. - perhaps you could remove the sourceforge site link from the description? It's linked from the homepage. Overall, I'd say doing a quick check with debc, aside from lintian is always a good idea, but the package seems good. After you take a look at these issues (or just justify them) I can sponsor you, if no one with more expertise in this sort of package pops up until - let's say - monday.
