 I've imported and tagged the unstable version instead; you can commit
 whatever changes you had on mentors on top of that.

 @Mario: do you want to continue sponsoring, I need to add you to
 pkg-gnome as well so that you can tag uploads; do you want to?

 Added.

 I took the liberty do to the necessary changes for the package to be
 uploaded by the Debian GNOME Team (subscribing to PTS, adding rules and
 build-deps, etc.).

 I've noted some problems with your package, could you please address
 these?  Perhaps these are already fixed in the mentors version:
 - debian/dirs is useless (and you don't call dh_installdirs anyway)
 - debian/install encodes a python version:
    debian/tmp/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/orca/scripts/*.py
   this is against the spirit of the Python policy, if you want to refer
   to the default python version dynamically, you should use "pyversions
   -d" in your rules and pass a dynamic path to dh_install; since you
   seem to be building for the default version only, I think you don't
   need this though
 - It's debian/pyversions and not debian/pyversion; I personally prefer
   XS-PV instead
 - Your binary-arch dh_ invocations should use "-s" or "-a" (except
   dh_testdir and dh_testroot)
 - You should list docs/man/orca.1 in gnome-orca.manpages

   Bye,
