I would love to start from what you have done. > But the package would really benefit from more cleanup IMO (switch to > "3.0 (quilt)", dh 7 with minimal rules file, stop using dh_movefiles > which has been deprecated, etc.). 3.0 quilt would not be an improvement, IMO. I have no desire to implement a version control system inside of the source package. we have so many to chose from already. Killing dh_movefiles, definitely. dh as a command hurts when I backport, though not so much anymore. I'll start with your diff and work forward from there. The python packaging around zenmap was my real blocker, and it's good to see someone has dealt with working me past my learning curve there.
