I haven't actually tested the functionality, but packaging seems almost ready. One issue is the watch file being empty (save for comments). If there's nothing inside, it should be deleted. But, for a Github project that does sane release, it's too trivial to fill it instead: .---- version=4 opts=filenamemangle=s/.+\/v(\d\S*)\.tar\.gz/uacme-$1\.tar\.gz/ \ https://github.com/ndilieto/uacme/tags .*/v(\d\S*)\.tar\.gz `---- The other thing are changelog entries that have never entered the archive. The changelog is supposed to include only actually released changes -- it's natural that there are multiple iterations during review, but those are not interesting to the end-user -- especially these days as we have git repositories for such minutiae. Thus, unless there's a good reason, such changelog entries get squashed; and, since there's no previous release, just a single "Initial release (Closes: #123456)" is enough. Also, both people and tools tend to get confused when there's a -7 but no -1. ("Good reasons" include the package being deployed to some actual users, such as a different distribution or even a company's or a cluster's internal machines -- in which case, reusing version numbers would cause harm.)
