I took a peek, out of curiosity. I was surprised not to find a orig.tar.gz / debian.tar.gz split; the package version scheme properly reflects a normal (non-native) package (1.2.3-1), but the source tarball has "./debian" in it; and indeed, it looks like you're managing the debian packaging in the upstream repo. It's advisable to keep the two separate. The debian/copyright file doesn't conform to spec[1], and doesn't describe the copyright of the debian files in particular. I couldn't easily answer the question: is your packaging based on the previous iteration of the debian package? Do the previous packagers hold copyright?
