OTOH, reading the policy manual I get the idea that a pristine original tarball is not something to give up easily... Right now the diff is 52 lines, so not really hard to read; I already wrote to upstream and he seemed happy about fswebcam being packaged inside debian, so I think for the next release I could get him not to add debian/, which would avoid the chance of the diff becoming something unreadable. Sounds fair? A related question: The original debian/ contains a changelog, which documents the past releases (packaged in .deb for i386 by upstream); should I get rid of that or keep it/import it?
