Hi Mattias,

Sorry for being so tardy in replying, but I will get to these issues in

yep, i'll make sure about that one the next time.

The python build-dep is for dh_python, the distribution has no setup.py
and the files are installed by hand, so no versioned build-dep on python
necessary.

I'm just too lazy right now to write a setup.py to install about 5 files
when make can do it just fine in 5 lines and one less file.
