I'm aware that for DEP-5 the shell code is not sufficient. For stable
I suggest to simply add the copyright in toto into debian/copyright,
i.e. to add the current status as of now:

If you need/want help for the future version (of for maintaining 
the current one) do not hesitate to contact me.

In any case, please coordinate the uploads before stable amongst
the translators, as at least from my side pending updates are
currently preprared for pushing.

Greetings
