I suggest to not patch README but to quote what upstream wrote about this in > debian/copyright including upstream's From and Date headers. > Done - I added a Comment field for the GPL-2+ license, explaining the situation and citing the upstream emails (with From and Date headers). I've updated the package yet again with the above changes, plus: - Added a doc-base registration file for the libticonv-dev package for completeness and lintian warning fixing. - Added a symbols file for the libticonv6 package to fix lintian warning. - Added a lintian overrides file for the libticonv6 package to silence warning about hardening. The debian/rules file uses buildflags.mk, which automatically sets the hardening build flags. Please review the package again and let me know if there are any other problems. Thanks for your help! Albert
