Hi, I'm not a DD, but I noticed a couple of things about your package: First, you ship a makefile in the .diff.gz. Why do you do this? You can implement all of this functionality in debian/rules without changing the upstream source. Just use dh_install to handle the installation of the scripts. Incidentally, this makefile seems to have some problems with it (it has an empty clean: target, and no .PHONY even though some rules don't create files with their names, like the clean: target).
Also, your rules file has some cruft in it. Since there is no configuration to be done, you shouldn't need to call a configure target at all. Second, remember to put the ITP in the changelog--maybe you just haven't uploaded a new version. Third, your debian/control is very sparse. You should have more than a sentence describing the package. Your manpage is also very short--it says "read the info pages," but I don't see any info docs shipped with your package. Fourth, since you have debhelper compat set to 7, there is no reason to remove the *-stamps by hand in debian/rules: dh_clean will handle this for you. On an independent note, since this is such a simple packaging job and you are already using debian/ files to install manpages, etc., instead of calling those targets as arguments of the respective dh_ targets, you might want to consider using dh calls from debhelper 7 to simplify debian/rules. man 1 dh for more information. Some also use cdbs to handle such packaging, see e.g. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MOTU/School/PackagingWithoutCompiling.
