Erhmm, I don't think this is what you really intend to upload? Your changelog entry above makes no sense for a diff that is 37k lines long, so there's something obviously wrong with your package... $ debdiff stretch/intel-gpu-tools_1.15-1.dsc bpo/intel-gpu-tools_1.15-1~bpo8+1.dsc | wc -l 37220 I've gone ahead and recreated your backported package as you probably intended it to be (i.e. with the above changelog entry and the patch you submitted in #829525; see attached 26-line debdiff), and uploaded it to backports-NEW. As per backports rules, please ensure that you're subscribed to the backports mailing list if you aren't already (for the purpose of receiving backports-related bug reports). I assume you've read all the other rules and are willing to maintain intel-gpu-tools for jessie's lifespan. Regards, Vincent
