Following Jeroen advice, I reopened them. I will see if they are closed
properly once package is accepted. As the package name has changed… it
could go wrong, I don’t know.

I followed the advice here
(file:///usr/share/doc/lintian/lintian.html#overrides):
« Please do not override bugs in lintian, they should rather be fixed
than overridden. »

Thanks, I will try to have a look at lintian to see if I can contribute
a fix for the .ico files and the setup.py long line. I think this should
falsely trigger too many times.
Thanks for your kind review,
Nicolas.
