that's something you can't fix by yourself.
It talks about validating the origin tarball by checking against a
detatched gpg signature while dowloading the tarball with uscan; you'd
need to add stuff to d/watch to point to the upstream signature file,
and add the upstream signature key to d/upstream/signing-key.asc.
Sadly most upstreams don't gpg sign their releases (nearly noone does,
by my experience...)

the same, if the tarball doesn't have a changelog there isn't much you
can't do...  A changelog could be a "NEWS" file, even.

btw, if you're going to follow up on this, please just discard this
email, and reply to some other email, don't break the thread, if you're
going to change the subject write something useful ("update on the bug"
ain't useful to find this email when one deals with severl hundreds
emails per day) and please, *please*, don't do top posting.
