If upstream is gone and won't come back you can delete the watch file.
Did you look if there are any forks that could be new upstream?
Here's a review:
- don't mark the bugs as "forwarded: not needed" if upstream is gone.
Either ignore (not override) the lintian thingy, or mark write "forwarded:
no, dead upstream."
"not needed" is kind of reserved for Debian specific patches.
The patch "fix-type-error" should be rather named "fix-typo" (with "o" instead of "e")…
(the current name is confusing…)
Why is the package not using autoreconf? It seems to use autotools…
Cheers,
tobi
