You build-depend on autotools-dev, but don't actually use it any way (AFAICS). Please rebuild the configure script from source. You might want to use dh-autoreconf for this purpose. How was your .orig.tar generated? It is different than the one uscan downloads. I am allergic to the debianize verb, and also wonder why two items are needed in the changelog... So I'd like to propose to replace them both with this one: * Initial release (closes: #759166). What is the purpose of your debian/source/options? It doesn't seem necessary to me.

(For instance, a separate backport for it, if necessary.) I suggest one of three different options (preferably options 2 or 3, whichever is most appropriate): 1) check if dpkg-maintscript-helper supports mv_conffile and then use that, otherwise fallback to handwritten logic to rename the conffile (see [1], or look at how dpkg-maintscript-helper itself is implemented) 2) pre-depend on a sufficiently recent version of dpkg such that mv_conffile is always known to be supported 3) don't rename the conffile at all (if it's not necessary) My concern is that what you're currently doing seems to be a mix of options 1 and 3, which is possibly worse than any of them, since the outcome of running your maintainer scripts will differ depending on what version of dpkg the user already has installed. You either always want the conffile to be renamed, or you never want the conffile renamed; I can't think of a valid scenario where you want to rename a conffile if and only if dpkg supports renaming that conffile. - Why bump the version number in debian/NEWS when there isn't a new entry, and nothing else in the file has changed aside from the timestamp? That seems likely to just annoy apt-listchanges users. To ensure that it is taken as being current and will be seen again as necessary. (I've corresponded with people who didn't look at it until I pointed it out that the info was there.) That seems like something that should go in a readme file, or a low-priority debconf notice at most. debian/NEWS is essentially meant to be a more visible user changelog that's used to notify the user of significant changes [2], not a recurring, identical message that is displayed every time the user updates this package. That being said, there's nothing in Policy that prevents maintainers from (ab)using debian/NEWS for different purposes, so I guess ultimately it's up to you as maintainer. Also, AFAIK apt-listchanges isn't installed by default on Debian, so users aren't guaranteed to see your NEWS entry anyways. Also, note that since Debian is in freeze right now, if you wish to target unstable, any (RC) bugfix uploads that you wish to get into jessie would then have to go through testing-proposed-updates (which the release team apparently really doesn't like).

Ok, sounds fine to me then (please address the maintscript/conffile-renaming issue though).

That package is orphaned and is a dependency of lletters. Would you consider team-maintaining this package in the Debian Games team [1] as well? You'll generally find it easier to find sponsors within a team. I'm mostly concerned about the size of some of your patches in debian/patches; it makes your package hard to review, and they're probably obsolete as well (e.g. what's the purpose of debian/patches/debian-changes-0.1.95+gtk2-3.2.patch when you're running autoreconf during the build?). While reviewing lletters, I discovered that Markus put together a minimal, easy-to-review debdiff to fix various bugs in lletters in #749360, so I'll go ahead and upload that first (just so we can get some RC bugs fixed and out of our way, and so you can focus on the packaging bits that you'd like to change).
