I suppose the one in the clean target, done.

Because only the .so should be installed.
I fixed this

Yes, that slipped off while writing it, thank you. (I really should've checked
it before RFSing...)

Will fix those as soon as I publish the code somewhere :)

This lintian warning is wrong here: :)

X-Comment: on Debian systems, the complete text of the GNU General
 Public License version 3 can be found in `/usr/share/common-licenses/GPL-3',
 while the latest version can be found in `/usr/share/common-licenses/GPL'.

That whole paragraph is right. Since the code is GPL-3+, I'm both pointing to
the minimum version (GPL-3) and the latest ("+", GPL) -- they just happen to be
the same at this time.

To point to copies of licenses in /usr/share/common-licenses/, without
violating the RFC.

DEP-5:

Extra fields.
Extra fields can be added to any section. Their name starts by X-.

Also in RFC822:

4.7.5.  USER-DEFINED-FIELD

             Individual users of network mail are free to  define  and
        use  additional  header  fields.   Such fields must have names
        which are not already used in the current specification or  in
        any definitions of extension-fields, and the overall syntax of
        these user-defined-fields must conform to this specification's
        rules   for   delimiting  and  folding  fields.   Due  to  the
        extension-field  publishing  process,  the  name  of  a  user-
        defined-field may be pre-empted

        Note:  The prefatory string "X-" will never  be  used  in  the
               names  of Extension-fields.  This provides user-defined
               fields with a protected set of names.

Thank you,
