We missed the following points:
Luca Falavigna pointed out these issues:
debian/control:
* "Maintainer:" doubled. (I fixed this)
debian/copyright:
* Licensed under LGPLv3+
* Please add license headers too.
debian/rules:
* debhelper >= 7.3.5 has automatic support for building extensions for
every supported Python version, so overriding dh_auto_* should be
omitted.
* Why overriding dh_pysupport?
In addition, I observed that the package, when built, is currently
uninstallable, even with the Python from experimental. The reason is
that ${python:Depends} expands to python (>= 2.6), which is currently
unsatisfiable, as the version of the "python" package in experimental
is 2.5.4-3:
http://packages.debian.org/experimental/python
Others can chip in with more advice; including whether to wait till
Python 2.6 is uploaded to unstable, or whether this can be worked
around.
Thanks.
Kumar
