Bug#263826: waiting for sponsor

[Daniel Baumann <daniel@debian.org>]

there are quite a few things to be done, but first of all:

please do upload the package somewhere where directory listing is
enabled. if you've no other possibility, you can also make use of
mentors.debian.net of course.

now to the package:

  * rebuild it on and for sid, sarge is not developed anymore, only
    security updates. do functional tests on sid too.
  * debian/changelog contains a useless empty-line at the end of the
    file.
  * debhelper (>= 4.0.0) is over-precise, debhelper (>= 4) is just
    enough.
  * don't write versioned depends like this: foo (>=1.2.3)
    but like this instead: foo (>= 1.2.3)
    (note the space)
  * don't depend on specific revisions if it's not required, even drop
    the whole version if it's fulfillable in stable.
  * Standards-Version: 3.6.1 is very outdated, update to current one
  * your package builds multiple binary packages, hence you should not
    use non-prefixed helpers like debian/dirs and debian/docs, but
    explicitly direct them to the right package (e.g. debian/emilda.dirs
    here)
  * including TODO in *docs isn't very informative, same with README.
  * remove the commented useless stuff from the maintainer scripts
  * do not use bashisms in the maintainer scripts.
  * remove the useless empty lines at the end of the maintainer scripts
  * remove the useless empty lines at the end of logrotate
  * if you use .install files, you don't need to create the dirs for
    them
  * remove the useless comented stuff in the watch and rule file
  * your build commands are bad, make will not stop processing if
    an error occures.
  * dh_installexamples and dh_installman is useless
  * remove the configure: rule, it's useless
  * it has been best-practise to have the dpatches starting with a
    number in order of patching.
    e.g. fhs_debian.dpatch would be renamed to 01-fhs-debian.dpatch etc.
  * fix the shebang of all dpatches (look at the dpatch templates).
  * remove the
    ## All lines beginning with `## DP:' are a description of the patch.
    lines from the dpatches, they are useless
  * additionally, you want to remove the magic at the beginning,
    this is also not needed.
  * fix the author information in the dpatches:
    it should not be 'by  <deckrider@yahoo.com>', but
    'by $Prename $Surname <$email>'.

i've not covered all things, but the most important ones. once you fixed
those, i'll look again at the package and tell you the remaining ones.
