The sequence of events here:
0) `dch -i` for an increment of the counter
1) change of the entry about maintainership in the /debian/control file
2) addition of two assistance scripts debian/git_report.sh and
debian/simpler_list.py I assumed (by Daniel Leidert's email) as not
required, though perceived as useful for later updates (only after
`bookworm` is published as `stable`)
3) run `dpkg-buildpackage` followed by `linitian`. As anticipated, `lintian`
now reports as a warning uploader and maintainer are the same; however, no
report of an error. The newly build .deb installed well (by `sudo dpkg
-i`) in an instance of Xubuntu 22.04 which is separate from the Linux
Debian 12/bookworm used to prepare the package
4) back in Linux Debian 12/bookworm, `dpkg-buildpackage --changes-option=-S`
on basis of "How to make a source-only upload" by
https://wiki.debian.org/SourceOnlyUpload,
5) `git add .`, `git commit -m`, and `git push` to the repository on salsa
6) `debsign` signature of the new .changes file, and `dput mentors` to provide
the mentors page with a new upload. After about 10 min and reception of the
of "the upload was accepted" email, I filed for a RFS.
Neither on Saturday, nor today does step 2) appear to me as an error. The
same page reports
```
If you like debuild command, you can do:
$ debuild -S
```
So far, I understood this instruction as "this is not necessary because the
previously issued `dpkg-buildpackage --changes-option=-S` already prepares the
source code".
