Hi Milan!

The package looks good.

The short description should not start with a capital (in
debian/control).

Please, convert debian/copyright to DEP-5. This is not a mandatory step
for Debian policy but this is something that I require to sponsor
packages. Moreover, this file is currently incomplete. You should update
the years, add copyright information for debian/* files and it seems you
are not one of the copyright holders. There are some other copyright
holders, like in src/device.c and examples/*.

src/stab.h is Copyright (c) 1990 by Sun Microsystems, Inc. I think it is
not covered by GPLv2 since it was only released a year later. Its
content is present in other headers (like <a.out.h> and <stab.h>). Since
it is an header, it is believed that they are not copyrightable. Just
document those facts (not copyrightable and content available in two
other header files) to be safe.
