I am interested in this package and would like to see it included in
Debian. I spent a brief look into it already and found a number of
issues:

 * debian/copyright: The license grant for the MIT license suspiciously
   looks like a GPL grant and references the non-existent file
   /usr/share/common-licenses/MIT.
 * khal.conf.sample should be installed using dh_installexamples instead
   of dh_installdocs.
 * Your patches say what they are doing, but the patch headers lack
   reasoning on why they are necessary (in particular the second patch).
 * It seems that you are packaging khal as a Python2 application, but
   upstream only declares it working with Python3. Is there any reason
   not to use Python3?
 * Instead of installing the manual page twice, please use a symbolic
   link. Try using dh_link.

At least the copyright issue is a blocker.

If you update the package, please Cc me, so I can have another look.

Helmut
