Hello,
Thus my personal rule is: If tarball is not identical to download move to Git for packaging. [...] For me the move is not urgent if the issue above is no real problem for you.
OK, so I propose to move the package to Git.I don't know how to do the move by myself (as I'm not a Debian developer, I might even not be able to do so): Andreas, would it possible for you to do the move when you have some sparse time (this is really low-priority)?
Regards, Sébastien-
