- You haven't filed an ITP bug yet
- Why does your package have version 0.1-3, while upstream is using
version 1.0 with some minor version number of -2?
- README and NEWS are not really needed (the content of README is in
copyright, NEWS just says there's an (alien-ed) Debian package...).
- When building the binary package, there are two warnings:
dh_gencontrol
dpkg-gencontrol: warning: unknown substitution variable ${shlibs:Depends}
dpkg-gencontrol: warning: unknown substitution variable ${misc:Depends}
I guess you should resolve these. You shouldn't need shlibs:Depends
for a simple perl script, anyway.
- There are unnecessary calls to debhelper commands in debian/rules,
e.g. dh_installdebconf. Please delete these.
