Hi!

FYI, I found your RFS only thanks to the /topic in #debian-python.
Unless you're very lucky most RFSes sent to random mailing lists have a
tendency to get lost/ignored; that's why I suggest you always file a RFS
bug and X-Debbugs-CC the relevant team, unless you know that team is
going to react (like pkg-js recently).

I fixed the file name in the pristine-tar branch (otherwise `origtargz`
ignored it..).

Yep, that's fine.  Please ask upstream to syncronize both, and have
github ship the setup.py, and the tarball the release.


more changes I ask you:
* d/changelog:
  + please kill the second changelog line; first uploads should only
    come with a "first upload" line
  + finalize it (dch -r)
* d/control:
  + please wrap-and-sort that list of build-deps
  + why are you commenting out the Testsuite field?
  + Vcs-* are pointing to a repo that's not DPMT's, that's wrong
    (furthermore that URL first requires auth, and it gave me a 404, so
    I think it's a private repo)
* d/compat:
  + please bump to 10 (d/control already have the >= 10, so I guess you
    just forgot to push this one too)
* d/rules:
  + please repspect DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck
  + please use the method provided by pybuild to properly run the tests
    against all supported python versions, against what you just
    "built"; I think that one runs only one python version (2.7)
    against the original sources.
  + you're overriding dh_auto_install when you only want to append
    --install-script to the command invoked.  Please use
    PYBUILD_INSTALL_ARGS=--install-scripts=... instead.
* d/copyright:
  + why are you licensing debian/ under a different license?
  + personally I find a lot more readable to have all the file paragraph
    at the top, and all stand alone licenses at the bottom
  + other/pack.py is under another license
* I: python-patch: new-package-should-not-package-python2-module python-patch
  + right, I was about to forget about this...
* I: python-patch source: binary-control-field-duplicates-source field "section" in package python-patch
