Hi Hai!
You should first take the ITP. Currently, the owner is still Margarita.
There is a lot of things in diff.gz. It is better that the only
modifications of the orig.tar.gz concern the debian/ directory. Use
diffstat to see the changes in diff.gz. Most (all?) of those changes are
due to improper cleaning.
There are missing dependencies. You should depend on autoconf and
automake.
Why do you only recommends valgrind? Can valkyrie work without it?
You should update to Standards-Version 3.8.0.
Your debian/copyright is incomplete. There are files that are not
GPLv2+. For example vk_popt.cpp. Even if the license is compatible with
GPLv2, you should mention it in the debian/copyright. Moreover, you
should cite excerpts of source files. For example:

You should add a debian/watch file.
You should fix those lintian warnings:
N: Processing binary package valkyrie (version 1.3.0-1) ...
I: valkyrie: hyphen-used-as-minus-sign usr/share/man/man1/vk_logmerge.1.gz:48
I: valkyrie: hyphen-used-as-minus-sign usr/share/man/man1/vk_logmerge.1.gz:61
I: valkyrie: hyphen-used-as-minus-sign usr/share/man/man1/vk_logmerge.1.gz:63
(use -viI for lintian).
Why is valkyrie-dbg needed?
