Great work! Not sure it is sensible to have me as uploader, though, as I am not comfortable using the packaging style involving short-form dh sequencer. Fine with me if we instead use CDBS with classic-style debhelper (I am happy doing the conversion), but I can imagine that being similarly an issue for others, so guess best is simply that I step out of the loop. (please beware, Petter, that I didn't confirm on irc to be listed as maintainer because of this dh/cdbs issue - I am not criticizing here, just mentioning because possibly others that you promote also haven't confirmed for whatever reason) > But for git-buildpackage to work well, I believe it is best to fetch a > tarball from github and import it using git-import-orig.
