Just a couple more things:

  - In debian/mpd-sima.init, you don't handle the "status" command, even
    though the Usage string indicates it's a valid command.

  - I'm not sure I understand what debian/clean is for. Are those files
    really generated by the build process? If so, that's surely a
    mistake, they're not even installed in the final package.

  - In debian/rules, you override dh_auto_clean but do not clean the
    build files yourself.

    You also install debian/wrappers/*, which appear to be copies of
    what the upstream Makefile would build; this seems like a rather
    fragile approach. Overall, I don't see why you can't rely on the
    upstream Makefile, and I think you should; it'll be much more
    maintainable that way.

Cheers,
