hm, this page looks like it was automatically generated.  sounds like
the generation tool needs to know that the vestigial debian/ from the
upstream source isn't used when the package is format "3.0 (quilt)".

But i don't know how the page is being generated, so i don't know who to
report this bug to.  do you?

I'd rather ship the sources exactly how upstream ships them, if
possible.  I'll nudge them again about dropping their vestigial debian/
directory, or at least trying to sync parts of it with what we're
shipping in debian, which would at least remove the po/ subdir.
