Hi Carsten,

thanks for the reponse. I imported fints in a DEP-14 repo:
https://salsa.debian.org/werdahias/python-fints
I didn't include a d/gbp.conf and my upstream branch is named upstream/lastest, 
but I hope this isn't an issue.
I'd appreciate it if you or another DD could review and upload it if you got 
the time.

Cheers

Matthias
