Looks good.  For those packages that need manual uploads I have two
remarks:

   1. Yesterday I uploaded dh-r 20180527.  It brings back the set of
      variables once used with cdbs.  Just have a look at a sample
      commit[1] for the changes you can do.

   2. I'd recommend to use

        routine-update --force   [2]

      which does things like changing Vcs-fields, new maintainer list,
      Standards-Version, debhelper, secure URI in watch file as well
      as refreshing Build-Depends using dh-update-R.  While I have
      spent the last weeks to test this with any package that seems to
      be sensible to update please have a look at the changes done
      anyway.
      (The --force option is needed since the script usually expects a
       new upstream version and will stop if that option is not given.)

Hope this helps

    Andreas.
