Hello,
on the first look it is fine, but I found a RC bug:
> gforth (0.7.0+ds1-1) unstable; urgency=low
>
> * New maintainer. Closes: #540827
> * Use quilt for patch management and add the debian/README.source file.
> * Fix the build:
> - specify an absolute prefix to "make install".
> - remove a couple of files that "make distclean" seems to miss.
> * Add the Homepage, Vcs-Svn, and Vcs-Browser control fields.
> * Install the NEWS file as an upstream changelog.
> * Deal with config.sub and config.guess properly - copy them from
> the autotools-dev package before running "configure" and remove them
> in the "clean" target.
> * Keep the vmgen.1 manual page in the debian/ directory.
> * Bump the debhelper compatibility level to 7:
> - version the debhelper build dependency
> - add ${misc:Depends} to the binary package
> - leave removing of the *-stamp files to dh_clean
> - use dh_prep instead of dh_clean -k
> - shorten the rules file using the dh(1) helper and override targets
> - disable debhelper's verbose mode
> * Bump Standards-Version to 3.8.3:
> - leave "install-info" to dpkg triggers and add the proper dependency
> * Disable an i*86 "optimization" of passing the non-existing -m486

> * Break out /usr/share/gforth/ into a gforth-common package.
You are missing replaces and conflicts at your new gforth-common
package, upgrades / installations would fail if they install your
- -common package and the old gforth one.
> * Make three example scripts executable.
> * Repackage to remove the CVS directories.
> * Fix the .TQ macro invocations in the groff.1 manual page so that
> the short options are actually rendered!
> * Add all the copyright holders to the copyright file and convert it
> to the DEP 5 format.
> * Properly compile and install gforth.el. Closes: #385399.
