Thanks.  The changes all make sense to me fwiw.

Thanks, I've applied (most) of them mostly unmodified.

Thanks for this.  I tried the package and it seems that NEWS.Debian
isn't actually installed.  While working on that, I picked a few other
nits:

 * the APIChanges should only be relevant to people using the
   development libraries, so I think it makes more sense to only
   install them to lib*-dev and libav-doc

 * using source format 3.0 (quilt), so "git reset --hard" and
   other habits don't produce confusing results

 * allowing "debian/rules clean" as a non-root user.  In
   modern times, most people don't run "debian/rules binary" as true
   root anyway, and in the worst case "debian/rules clean" will error
   out and the user will know what to do (just a pet peave).

If you have any complaints, I'd be glad to roll a new version of the
patches addressing them.

Thoughts?
Jonathan Nieder (3):
  clean up NEWS.Debian and related documentation
  use source format 3.0 (quilt)
  debian/rules: allow clean as non-root
