Have you run lintian on it? Or at least looked at the mentors page?

Hm, which one would you suggest?
In the Debian Policy "Recommends" is said to be a "strong" dependency
which I think "jq" and "jo" are not, so I used "Suggests"

Nothing, otherwise packages would declare Suggests: less.

Control: tags -1 + moreinfo

You shouldn't write changelog entries for releases that were not uploaded.
And you first changelog entry should close an ITP.

Ok, will change that

Looking at the repo, you shouldn't keep debian/ in the master branch as
that implies packaging changes are a part of the project release changes.
See also https://wiki.debian.org/UpstreamGuide

Well, I am going to "export-ignore" it

The package short description just lists the binary names, that's not
helpful.
The orig tarball is different from the repo content.

Will be fixed

Why override_dh_builddeb?

Ah yeah, did some backporting for an old Lenny System I still have :-)

I doubt jo and jq should be in Suggests as it seems they are just things
to pipe the tool output to and you don't put into Suggests any kinds of
such tools.
