I point to it in the debian/copyright file, I was unaware about Vcs-* headers 
in the control file.

My intention is take over the development of driftnet but I tried to contact 
Chris Lightfoot, the upstream author, and I notice that he dead some years 
ago.

About this situation, I have a question: 
	If i create a new fork (that i want to develop and maintain), can it be 	
	uploaded to the debian archive as if it were the original driftnet 		
	package ?

Ok, the next upload that fixes the two points discused above will be 
driftnet/0.1.6+cvs20040426-2.
