debian/watch is the watch file. If you read the uscan manual page,
you'll see this:
# If your package is located on sourceforge, use one of the following
# formats to automatically use the qa.debian.org redirector, avoiding
# SF's difficult mirror system.

Copy the README file to a FAQ file and then use sed to strip out
everything before the line that says "FAQ". Something like this should
do it (in the debian/rules build target):
sed -ne '/FAQ/,//p' < README > FAQ
and this in the clean target:
rm -f FAQ
and replace README in debian/docs with FAQ

The best way is to ask upstream to remove the Encoding key from their
gnomad2.desktop.in and remove the Application category from the
Categories key in their gnomad2.desktop.in file.
If upstream doesn't respond, or you can't wait for them to take
action, add a patch (using quilt/dpatch/etc) that does these things to
the gnomad2.desktop file (because that is what is installed).
