Renaming or deleting is fine, yes. Also, your build script uses /bin/sh
where it should use /bin/bash. Finally, your makefile works in
/usr/share/pathological. The preferred directory would be
/usr/share/games/pathologial.

I haven't noticed anything else yet, but if I run across something
working on the packaging, I'll let you know.

A new release would probably be best. The naming format doesn't really
matter, but my recommendation would be pathological-1.1.3. :)

Nothing specifically for Debian upstream maintainers; obviously Debian
Policy might have useful information in it, and there's some good advice
in the GNU coding standards (not all of it, though).
