Dear Jeroen,

Thanks for your packaging work!
I cannot sponsor the upload, but here're a few comments after
reviewing your package.

Here're the items need to be fixed:
- inconsistent on license:
  COPYING shows the project is under GPL-3+
  however, source files under src/ folder and debian/copyright shows GPL-2+

- license of image file: icons/48x48/mate-equake-applet-icon.png
  Please confirm its license with upstream (you?), usually license of
image files is different from the code.

 - license of install-sh is differrent, you need to sort it out

 - lintian reports:
   Former 2 should be easy, last one can be fixed later.
    W: mate-equake-applet source: ancient-standards-version 3.9.5
(current is 3.9.8)
     I: mate-equake-applet: spelling-error-in-binary
usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mate-equake-applet Minimun Minimum
     I: mate-equake-applet: hardening-no-bindnow
usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/mate-equake-applet

Other comments, nice to have:
 - it's more convenient if you can export your work to some modern
SCM, such as git
   the review will be easier if doing with such SCM
   you can omit the final releasing commit, so if there's something
still need to work, you don't have to push forcefully.
 - add Vcs-* line to d/control (depends on the above item)
 - bump to debhelper 10
 - In favor of https URL over http in debian/copyright
 - there're a few warnings during build, better fix them if possible

I don't use mate, so just a review from source side.

Cheers,
