It' builds fine, thanks! There's a little problem with the orig tarball,
which is in tar.gz format, and that I always repackage into tar.xz
before building to save space.

As a side note to this: don't really know why upstream doesn't provide
tar.xz tarballs, I've submitted a patch some years ago¹ but nobody has
answered so far. Maybe you can convince Hiroyuki-san that smaller
tarballs are better ;-)

I've noticed also your name in debian/control file should be changed to
the same you use for debian/changelog or viceversa, whatever you prefer.
Keeping differently written names makes the tools think we're doing a
wrongly versioned NMU², which is not really true.

Can you please prepare the upload with the above changes? If not, just
tell me and I will do.

thanks in advance and best regards,
