Thanks for the quick review. I will see when I find the time to address your comments. Currently I'm very busy, so I'm addressing only one of your comments now.

echo "   snetmanmon is copyright (c) 2015 by Alexander Holler" >debian/copyright
echo "" >>debian/copyright
echo "License:" >>debian/copyright
echo "" >>debian/copyright
cat LICENSE >> debian/copyright

nack. the copyright file should be not auto generated, because ftpmasters will reject it.
(and maybe in machine-readable format)

The copyright for snetmanmon isn't autogenerated, it's part of the README. What I'm generating here is the file which is necessary for the debian package, mainly because I don't want to have the GPL in the standard LICENSE file and in debian/copyright. And that is something I likely will not change. Otherwise I would end up with various files for various packaging systems which all are containing the same text of the license.

I wonder what ftpmasters would reject. The resulting package has the usual debian copyright file and the source (the contents of my git repo) contains the standard README and LICENSE.

Alexander Holler
