Hi, Tobias Thank you for taking the time to review this package and for your comments. I have corrected these nuances.
Regarding the tests: I have reviewed the Clipboard project’s tests. They require a GUI, a sound system, external utilities (wl-clipboard/xclip), and a specific environment, which makes them unsuitable for running in a clean build environment (pbuilder/sbuild). They are intended for manual testing after installation, not for automated verification during package build. It’s better not to use them in dh_auto_test or autopkgtest. Would you like to sponsor Clipboard in the future?
