Thanks for the update. I see your upstream isn't too keen on clean release
tarballs (as the many *~ files document obviously - now that they have
remove config.status at least), heh? ;-)
Anyway, regarding your packaging:
1.) adding autotools-dev would be still a plus for your package.
2.) debian/copyright is not (yet) in DEP-5 format but in some older format.
I don't know about Ubuntu but for Debian converting to DEP-5 would be
preferred (at least in d-mentors)
3.) debian/patches/dsofix.patch is having a good DEP-3 header already yet
hasn't been marked as pushed upstream. Don't you think upstream will be
interested in importing this back into their files?
4.) The LGPL2 files obviously still have the wrong FSF address:
./src/eggaccelerators.h: LGPL (v2 or later) (with incorrect FSF address)
./src/eggaccelerators.c: LGPL (v2 or later) (with incorrect FSF address)
You may want to inform upstream about this and have them fix this with
the next release.
Other than that looks good to go, thus built, signed, uploaded.
Thanks!
