Hello Benjamin, some notes on your package:
1) Please, use DEP-3 for patches, just add at least short Description, Author and Last-Update fields. 2) Where is it possible to download a tar.gz, which is shipped with the package? 3) Please, use VCS for maintaining your package. You can do it on collab-maintain or in one of available teams. It will be easier to maintain/review your package, using VCS. 4) Why do you patch tipp10.desktop, if you have one more desktop-file in debian-folder? 5) Add debian/watch file. 6) You have html-documentation, it should have be indicated in corresponding doc-base files. 7) Add a manpage, at least a short one, describing the minimal functionality. 8) Can you use the name /usr/bin/tipp10 instead of /usr/bin/tipp10launcher? 9) Use --parallel option in debian/rules for faster buildings on many-cores build-machines. 10) Use "lintian" over .changes file for controlling your package.

You are putting "binary" (compressed gz-file) into the debian-folder. It is not allowed. Thanks for trying to put a new package into Debian. Bit it needs to be updated before uploading.
