Hi!

Thank you for you suggestions.

Well, i already uploaded (actually, my sponsor) the package to the NEW 
queue. Currently it is sitting there. Now I'm unsure as to make the 
changes you suggested, and quickly reupload or just wait to get the 
package uploaded and then, after it is not "new" to Debian anymore, 
upload the fixed version. Any suggestions? I just want to minimize the 
work for the FTP-Masters caused by my new package.

Regards,

Simon
