Hi, I'm not a DD, so I can't sponsor your package, but I looked at your
package and here are some things that I noticed:
* You should add DEP-3 headers to your patches:
http://dep.debian.net/deps/dep3/
* To comply with Debian's policy on convenience copies, you'll have to
remove the local copy of jquery.js and depend on libjs-query. (Unless,
of course your version is different. I haven't checked.)
* In d/control, since you've already defined Section:libs in the source
package, you can remove the section field from libgaminggear0 and
libgaminggear-common.
Good luck getting your package into Debian!
