I've taken a quick look at the packages and they look fine. There's two
things I think you need to change before you upload:

1) The changelog mentions a long list of bugs closed. That's not
appreciated, better mark every bug separately. Like this:

  * New upstream release.
  * Correctly install init scripts (Closes: #235026)
  * Fixes build failures (Closes: #284770, #376381).
  * Add debconf-2.0 alternate (Closes: #331793).
  * Update MySQL dependency (Closes: #358832).
  * Add debconf translations (Closes: #310183, #308204, #310182,
#336044).


2) You really should add LSB dependency information to the init script,
that's not that difficult:

If you need another sponsor you can ask me if frankie is busy or on
holiday.


thanks,
Thijs
