Hello.

These lines in debian/rules
        -install -m 644 debian/README.contrib \
        install -D -m 755 debian/ip-up $(tmpdir)/etc/ppp/ip-up.d/fetchmail
fail to install README.contrib because a continuation line is missing,
do not report the problem because of the evil leading dash,
and miss installation of the ip-up script.

The attached changes refresh the packaging and incorporate patches for
this, #710319, #752598 as well as many trivial issues.

The last diff requires some attention, as switching to debhelper
compatibility level 11 changes the defaults for dh_installinit.  As
far as I understand
* "dh_installinit --restart-after-upgrade" is now the default
  and the override in debian/rules is not necessary.
* the induced changes in maintainer scripts (attached for review) seem safe.
