Hi. Thanks a lot for the input. I was able to improve the package and
re-upload it. In detail:

1. upstream is now untouched -  artofillusion.sh and build.xml are in 
debian/patches
2. changelog is fixed, current Standards-Version fixed, synopsis fixed
3.  format is now 3.0 (quilt) and whole package is quilted.
4. Thanks to your advice (licencecheck) I was able to add some missing authors 
and put all the GPL2+ in the proper section
5. manpage added
6. LICENCE file fixed (also in debian/patches)
7. package split into artofillusion-common and artofillusion
8. package is now Lintian-clean

-----

Remaining issues:

1. debian/watch added: but it doesn't work. The upstream uses SF and a
wierd versioning. Version 3.0 is in the filename encoded as "30" and
version 2.9.2 as "292". As a result it always reports that 292 is the
newest version. What can we do there?

2. empty directories: without the empty directories, the program runs
into errors. You can test that by deleting them after installation. I
could remove them from the build and add them to artofillusion.sh, so
they will be created on the first start. What shall we do?

If you have time I would be thankful, if you can review it again.
Thanks.
