Ok, thanks a million for your good comments Tobias and Riley, there
seems to be things that did not cross my mind yet .. :)

But, before attempting to address the listed problems I'd like to 
get clarification on a few unclear items:
 - Mixing OpenSSL with LGPL is ok and requires no license-statement
   acrobatics? While I'm the upstream, switching the license from
   GPL to LGPL is possible and would also suit well together 
   with the fact that the text editor code from Nokia is in LGPL too..
 - ..about the debian directory in the tarball: as it is handy to 
   have the build-related items in same version control with the 
   sw what do people normally do? Maybe rename the directory
   "debian" to something else and the re-re-name when it is actually 
   needed? Or just delete directory from the tarball, making it
   impossible to simply fetch latest .tar.gz from version control to
   be treated as "original sources"?
 - The Lenin photograph, according to 
   http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newspaper#mediaviewer/File:Lenin_reading_Pravda.gif
   is by Pyotr Otsup who was not credited in copyright. The file is
   in the public domain in most countries yes, but is it still a
   problem to have it included, if there is some imaginary country
   that for instance grants eternal copyright to every graphical item?
 - Supposing I can somehow fix the pending problems, what should I do 
   next after that? dput yet another version and make a notice about 
   that in comments of this bug #779377 or maybe file another bug
   report or what?  

Thanks for your patience,
