Hey, thanks for the work! I was the last person to work heavily on the debian packaging. Since then, I have become a Debian Developer so will be able to review and sponsor any uploads. I will try to review your updates soon. One thing to note is that ./build-freenet-daemon.sh contains some out-dated practise for building a debian package. There are also things in debian/TODO to take note of. I will also try to tidy these things up soon... In the meantime, feel free to ask me any questions.
