I see you linked to the bacula.org homepage for this package. Am I
correct in saying that what you are packaging can be found here:

    http://www.bacula.org/git/cgit.cgi/bacula/tree/gui

if so there seems to already be packaging (outside of Debian) that
uses the bweb name for the package.
If not, would you mind clarifying which GUI tool for Bacula this is
with a link to a homepage and / or git repo?

Actually those are the dependencies of this project. The question is
if this package is a dependency of another package (in the same way
PRADO is a dependency of this package).

You should probably maintain it inside the Debian Bacula Team. This
will make it easier to find a sponsor (which I will get to) and help
if need be.

You mentioned that you have never made Debian packages before. Thus,
you are not a Debian developer and need a debian developer to review
and then upload the packages for you. This is what a sponsor is. You
need a sponsor.
