We had a brief conversation on IRC, where I told you that this package should be hosted at salsa.d.o. You told me you created a new repo there. Great! Here are the other things I noticed about the package. Mostly nits. I think we should be good to go once you address them. 1) On d/copyright, you don't list the files under the "debian/" directory. These should be listed, and you should be the author. I recommend choosing the same license as upstream, just to make things simpler. 2) On d/control, Standards-Version should now be 4.1.5. 3) Better safe than sorry: on d/control, the Vcs-* fields should point to your salsa.d.o repo. 4) On d/rules, you can remove the "override_dh_auto_install" target if you're not using it. Otherwise, the package looks good to me. Let me know when you address these issues and I'll be happy to upload it.
