Thanks for working on dkopp;
I hope even after this time you've waited you'll welcome the review…

- note that we are currently in the freeze, so an upload of a new upstream
  version to unstable is inappropiate. Please target experimental for now, or
  wait until bullseye has been released. (I'm not going to upload to unstable
  at this point of the freeze)

- dkopp is orphaned. (#987089).
  - Do you want to do an QA-Upload or do you intent do adopt the package?
    That needs to be indicated in the package:
     - for the former, read Developer Reference §5.11.6 how to do an QA upload.
       (e.g updating d/control's Maintainer field and change log entry)
     - for the latter, it is §5.9.5 (you need to change the orphaning bug to an
       ITA bug and close that bug in the changelog)

- the changelog entry should focus a bit more on "why" something has changed,
  as I can see the "what" from the diff, but not the rationale behind that…
  - why lshw as new dependency?
  - why B-D on libclutter-gtk-1.0-dev?

- The update on d/watch is not mentioned in d/changelog.

- d/copyright needs updating. (upstream provides a dep5-copyright in
  docs/copyright; might get you started, but you need to review all files if
  the provided file is correct.)


- d/control:
 - VCS-Git should be an https:// URL (ref. to Policy 5.6.26)
 - Homepage should use https
   - the file debian-control hints that the homepage has moved to
     https://kornelix.net/ (the old one at least has a bad SSL certificate)

For the sppnsoring procedure, please update the package; once ready, please remove the
moreinfo tag and I'll take a look again.

(if you prefer to wait until bullseye has been released, let me know as well;
otherwise it must target experimental)

Cheers,
