> I addressed 2 of your original comments [0]:
>  * You should check your package against the latest Debian Policy (3.9.1)
>    and update debian/control accordingly
>
>  * You should use a private directory for your python module, eg.
>    /usr/share/nautilus-image-manipulator/ - please have a look at this
>    excellent tutorial [0]. You should also use dh_python2
>
> Well, after reading again, I'm not sure about using dh_python2 since I
> don't see it back in debuild's output (but I do see dh_pysupport). Can
> you direct me to the way you were thinking about?
>
> Probably related, what's up with the file
> /usr/share/python-support/nautilus-image-manipulator.private ? Is this
> needed in case dh_python2 is used?

> Regarding your other comment:
>  * You have an unwanted patch in debian/patches which was automatically
>    added by the 3.0 (quilt) source format
>
> This patch gets created automatically when running debuild, because
> the .pot file gets generated again. How can I prevent this, and is it
> a big problem (after all, the .mo files need to be compiled before
> packaging, so I'm not sure this should be a problem).

> As a side note, should the .pot (translation template) be included in
