Bah, hit send too early, sorry for the double mail.

Please remove these prebuilt files from the debian/ directory and
don't add them to the upstream tarball.

./debian/xburst_stage1.bin
./debian/xburst_stage2.bin
./debian/stage1.bin

You include an embedded code copy (or fork) of the Qi bootloader.
Please remove it and package Qi separately. I wonder if usbboot/ is
also an embedded code copy.

Please use 'make distcheck' to produce a tarball for release and for
the Debian orig.tar.gz

The README.source indicates that this requires a cross-compiler for
MIPS in the $PATH. Since we don't have one in Debian yet, your package
cannot be uploaded as-is. You could however, build and upload from a
MIPS machine with gcc installed.

I stopped here, there are way too many huge issues to consider
reviewing it fully.
