  Dear mentors,

https://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/b/budgie-desktop/budgie-desktop_10.3.1-1.dsc

Notes:

I have tested the package on the latest Stretch

debian-testing-amd64-xfce-CD-1.iso   2017-05-08 08:38  642M

built through forcing a download via uscan, unpack and build using the
revamped debian package. N.B. this validated that the upstream
maintainer key new PGP signed key works.  built via "debuild -us -uc
-d"

Also built the same package on Ubuntu 17.10 Artful via Launchpad and
tested on 32bit and 64bit.

As requested I have reworked the package to reduce the lintian issues.

The key main one remaining is the extant  RPATH lintian issue that is
in the existing v10.2.9 budgie-desktop package.

upstream here basically says there is not alot that can be done.
https://github.com/budgie-desktop/budgie-desktop/issues/920

Since Debian is in the final release mode for Stretch so I guess
unstable is not the correct request for this?  Thus I've set the
changelog to build for experimental.

  Changes since the last upload:

  budgie-desktop (10.3.1-1) experimental; urgency=medium
