Fine.

Is there any way to report policy text bugs?

Fine. I updated tinysvm package accordingly, so that get-orig-source is now working.
Unfortunately I am facing this bug http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=494141 so that get-orig-source is printing many warnings when invoked from outside the
package directory.
I sent a patch fixing the issue in cdbs.
Bests,
Giulio.
