The version is now fixed. A few blocking issues: - debian/copyright is missing copyright holders + license of e.g. header files in include/linux/* - your package FTBFS (full pbuilder build log attached): checking for nft_rule_alloc in -lnftables... no configure: error: No suitable version of libnftables found Some non-blocking / pedantic issues: - AFAIK uscan/devscripts will check for debian/upstream/signing-key.asc, not .pgp, but then again, I'm not sure if there's consensus yet on where exactly to put upstream's key in the first place... - please pass --disable-silent-rules to ./configure so that compiler flags show up in the build logs (and so the logs are actually useful for some of Debian's automated tools, e.g. the buildd log scanner [1]). This also goes for libnftnl as well. - I wouldn't override any lintian tags that are actually valid issues (hyphen-used-as-minus-sign); it's fine if you decide to just ignore them Regards, Vincent [1] http://qa.debian.org/bls/
