Yes. Pushing the tags from the Debian repository into your repository.
gbp is expecting a git tag there and doesn't find it.

Compare https://github.com/toogley/pkg-wicd/tags with
https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/collab-maint/wicd.git/refs/tags

Much better! :-)

Only one small thing to nitpick: Usually the changelog items are added
at the bottom of the current entry. They may be grouped by
contributor, though, i.e. adding new items at the end of your item
group as you did here:

Great!

I'll likely take these two commits and add them to the upload I plan
to make this weekend. (Didn't work out last weekend...)
