This would be constructive criticism, and not sponsoring.
I'm not DD yet but here goes my hints/suggestions:
debian/changelog:
Please fill ITP bug to ensure that noone else is packaging this.
Then close it with changelog entry.
debian/control:
Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 4.0.0)
I'm quite sure that this is not enough. Building it from source with
such dependencies will fail for sure.
At least libsdl1.2-dev and libsdl-mixer1.2-dev are needed (as far as
I can see from their webpage).
Just try to build this package in chrooted environment. Pbuilder is
a great utility for such purposes.
Also please bump your Standards-Version to the latest (3.6.1).
Rremove ${misc:Depends} variable cause you don't use it.
debian/copyright:
Take a look at:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2004/debian-devel-200403/msg02190.html
debian/dirs:
Adjust it to the used dirs.
debian/menu.ex:
First of all rename it to menu (without .ex suffix) and adjust it to the
proper paths.
debian/rules:
Remove those comments... and unused dh_* commands.
That were my hints... hope them help you ;)
regards
fEnIo
