I've followed your commits, great!

Nope, it's not:
$ dpkg --compare-versions 1.4.0-dev+svn2484 lt 1.4.0-1 ; echo $?
1
$ dpkg --compare-versions 1.4.0-dev+svn2484 gt 1.4.0-1 ; echo $?
0
Please use 1.4.0~dev+svn2484, so that we can upload 1.4.0-1 if we want to :-)
Hmm, 1.4.0~svn2481-1 is even better or 1.4.0~dev+svn2484-1...

IMO we should leave this (lintian warnings) as they are, as these are issues
we/upstream need to fix. Changing the location from /var/www
to /srv/www/munin or such is something I would really like to see fixed for
squeeze, but I'm not really sure what is the best location. Maybe we should
start a thread on debian-devel@ to gather information+opinions how other
packages handle that.

debian/rules should delete that file and we should use this font from the
proper package already in Debian.

hah. I should finish reading mails before starting to answer them ;-)

Hm, doesnt munin still store files there? /usr needs to be read-only :)

As a first thought, I wouldn't change that on upgrades, but only for new
installations. Then we "just" need to make sure it works for upgrades :)

See above :-) I think you are doing great, thanks a lot!
