  I still need to investigate it further, including checking its 
config, then decide how to resolve it.
  Error is with multiple instances of crashmail pre v1.0 tags, that 
un-annotated tags are not allowed in this repository.

Fixed.

Specified packaging branch info in Vcs-* URLs.

  Fixed.



- your debian/README.source is redundant given that you use source

As I indicated, I would prefer to keep it...

   I'll be fixing that...

   The one now listed has both the packaging ('debian' branch) and 
upstream ('master' branch), and the one at alioth is the same. However, 
the one at alioth has been having problems that's been causing issues 
with updates to it;  I still plan to continue mirroring the repo there 
but first I have to fix the issues it has.


   But it's also true that the packaging branch in neither repo is not 
the default branch, and  that unlike github that cannot be changed; so 
I'll need to update those fields in the debian/control to include the 
branch info.




- debian/rules has a redundant override_dh_installchangelogs target
   I don't now recall why I left that in there when I rewrote the 
file;  I'll fix it...

   Perhaps; but while a DD or DM might know that, whom else would? I've 
been using such a file since before I joined the Perl team [1], and 
haven't really been considering it redundant since many people would not 
know what that format means.  But you consider not really necessary to 
have it?

 really been considering it redundant since many people would not know what
 that format means.  But you consider not really necessary to have it?

It's redundant in the sense that as long as you use source format 3.0
(quilt), dpkg-source is able to handle quilt-formatted patches by
itself (so you don't need an explicit build-dep on quilt, you don't
need to call dh_quilt in d/rules, etc.), so you don't actually need to
use quilt directly. This is just me being pedantic, however; you can
keep debian/README.source if you want. :)

Anyways, the d/copyright issue is the only true blocker, fix that and
I can upload this.

Vincent
