Uploaded; thanks for your contribution to Debian.  Since the package is
new, it will end up in the NEW queue.  Here it will wait for the
FTP-masters to give it a second review.

You may want to consider making a separate upstream changelog for the
next version.  There some of the entries in the current debian changelog
that I am somewhat conflicted about.
  An example would be 0.1.4-1: "Minor modifications for better code
safety".  I do not see how that (directly) affects the user of the
package; but that particular line could be added to an upstream changelog.


You might also want to "attach" relevant upstream changes to "New
upstream release" bullet, like:

 triggerhappy (0.1.4-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release
    - Support for new --clear command line
    - etc.
  * fix "Provides" in init script
  * etc.

 -- Stefan Tomanek [...]

There is a "Best Practices for (Debian) changelogs" in the Developer's
Reference[1] that might be a good read.
