I still have a problem with uscan. It should ideally work when run in an
unpacked source package. And since you are copying ../.git, I guess it
doesn't (IOW it works only when run from a git checkout). Can't you
instead initialize a new throw-away git repository as I suggested?
Also if the official workflow is now "uscan" + "gbp import-orig", then
upstream/latest should contain all the files of all submodules and
debian/master too.
You should probably do a first run of gbp import-orig with the current
orig.tar.gz to add the missing files and merge again upstream/latest
into debian/master.
And update debian/README.source... while the currently documented method
does create an appropriate orig tar ball stored in pristine-tar, it
doesn't store all the files in upstream/latest and in debian/master.
Now that you dropped the PDF, wcc-doc is really small. I think that the
package is not needed, you can just dump all the documentation in the main
"wcc" package. And you can get rid of
/usr/share/doc/wcc-doc/wikidocs/.git too.
Cheers,
