There is no actual homepage for this driver?

Some random comments, while having a quick look at the package:
* the tarball contains a stub COPYING file with no actual information,
maybe you could get upstream to remove it?
* the manpage is copied directly from the void input driver, only the
filename is changed, this should be fixed (and describe the options
this driver supports)
* you run configure with both --host and --build unconditionally, see
/usr/share/doc/autotools-dev/README.Debian.gz on how to fix this
* no need to run dh_makeshlibs, you don't ship a shared lib
* in debian/control, please build-dep on a recent (>= 2:1.4-1) version
of xserver-xorg-dev, and replace the hardcoded 'Provides' and
dependency on xserver-xorg-core with automatically generated values
using /usr/share/xserver-xorg/{inputabiver,serverminver} (look at any
other input driver package to see how it's done)
Cheers,
Julien
