It claims, among others, that basically every file on the system has
disappeared. That's nonsense. Looks like that part of the infrastructure
made a boo-boo.
A package with no preinst/postinst/prerm/postrm can't possibly fail piuparts
testing -- it carries only static files that are added/removed by dpkg. You
have no Replaces that'd allow a file conflict, and your package is a leaf
one with no bogus symlinks that could possibly redirect something else.
And, it passes piuparts on my box.

Yeah.

According to new Release Team's rules, only packages built on the official
infrastructure are allowed to the new release, and the first upload can't
possibly be. Until someone implements a better way, every package has to be
built twice, and arch:all don't currently allow automated rebuilds.
This means, you need to make another upload.
And for this reason I did not wait until nits like the redundant files are
fixed: that second upload is a good opportunity to fix them.
