Hi Iulian,

as usual, some things you notice only after the upload:

I suspected these test failures are harmless, but I wasn't 100% sure
as I didn'tĀ investigate where the "fatal: unrecognized input" lines
came from.

Ubuntu patched the guilt package so that the test suite runs at build
time. They also patched the test suite to ignore all "fatal:
unrecognized input" lines.

They also rewrote debian/rules to a minimal dh7 style with just one
override. I think most of the patch could be incorporated into
Debian's guilt package. (But that would be too bold for a normal NMU
anyway. :-)

See https://patches.ubuntu.com/g/guilt/guilt_0.35-1ubuntu2.patch

(But take care, quilt's .pc directory errornously seems part of the
Ubuntu patch.)

                Regards, Axel
