Thanks, I've pulled from there as a basis for an initial packaging repo: https://salsa.debian.org/sdl-team/libdecor-0 I would strongly prefer the git repo to be "source included", like the one for libsdl2 - that fits the policies of both the SDL and GNOME teams. > How should I update the package information according to your > suggestions?

Some of the changes I suggested will make it incompatible with the packages currently in your PPA (i.e. break upgrades), so it might be best to have a "clean break" between the PPA and the official Debian packaging, by forking https://salsa.debian.org/sdl-team/libdecor-0 on salsa.debian.org and doing new packaging work there. I can give you commit access to that packaging repo when we've got a bit further, but you'll need an account on salsa.debian.org first, and it might be best to do at least the first few changes as merge requests. smcv
