Okay, I shall merge the two entries.

Oddly, I thought about removing the comments... But didn't, I shall
remove them for the next upload.

With regards to the DESTDIR, I'm hitting a stumbling block. It got me
thinking that I shouldn't need to manually override dh_auto_install,
so have removed that.

pbuilder calls make with DESTDIR=/tmp/buildd/vpcs-0.5b0/debian/vpcs,
which wipes out the current DESTDIR?=/usr or DESTDIR+=/usr

Is it then okay to change the install lines of the Makefile to include
the /usr directory?

Example: install vpcs$(BIN_EXT) $(DESTDIR)/usr/bin/

Will be changed in the next upload.

I have sent the patches from the previous version upstream. The
manpage was patched, but when it was edited new errors were introduced.

The two makefile patches, are more difficult to integrate upstream as
the author builds using BSD-Make as opposed to GNU-Make.
