This seems to be a good fit for the team, indeed.

https://git.somlen.de/arpwatch.git/ returns 403 Forbidden :)

Quick review:

* lintian reports

  P: arpwatch source: source-contains-data-from-ieee-data-oui-db ethercodes.dat 

  but it looks like you already fixed it. If this warning is not relevant
  anymore please override it.

* There's no copyright entry for you

Nitpicking:

in debian/changelog: why "remove dmassagevendor" ? This changelog entry
could be more verbose.

$ cme check dpkg

Otherwise, the package looks good. I did not review everything yet,
I'll take a second look later. :)
