The soversion is 1.0.0 in the build I have here... What'd it come up
with for you?

Uh, that's so that the included binaries link against the shared-object.
The link is removed two lines later.

Hmm. I was going off the example of libgd-utils and libjpeg-tools, as
well as Junichi Uekawa's packaging guide, but I will take openjpeg-tools
under consideration. (Assuming that's what you meant, not that I rename
the entire thing to *jpeg2000*.)
Fixed the cut and paste oversight, thanks.

Strange. Policy requires a verbatim copy of the copyright and license,
and that's verbatim from the website.
I've fixed this by removing the "License" seperator and the first set of
copyright statements, so it's now both verbatim and doesn't describe the
copyright holder's list as the license.
As for the upstream URL, the copyright FAQ [1] states that should be the
URL for the upstream source... That could be clearer, they obviously
mean the _other_ "source". Fixed, thanks.

I'm not going to apply dpatch to something so trivial. The number of
DD's who dislike dpatch is significant enough that I don't feel this
package is changed enough to require it, and make someone else's life
harder down the road for the sake of 6 changed lines.
The package _builds_ without those changes, but isn't policy-compliant.
(ie. the stuff in libopenjpeg-tools ends up statically linked, and the
debug version of the library ends up stripped. The 'mv' change will go
away, the preceeding change should be sufficient)

The debian/rules file builds it firstly without -fPIC, as Debian policy
requires that .a objects are build without it, and then rebuilds with
-fPIC to generate the .so. I didn't realise it was going to fail to
build in that instance...
I've changed it so it doesn't _try_ to build the .so file the first time
'round.
New package will be uploaded once it's out of pbuilder.
