Dear Daniel,

Thank you for your work on MHD packaging, it is much appreciated. I am 
currently having a look at your merge request, please do not upload an NMU in 
the meantime.

As a general rule concerning your changes, I would prefer not mixing packaging 
style and trailing whitespaces changes with bug fixes. But if you'd like to 
co-maintain the
package, we could also implement your wrap-and-sort choices of course.

Concerning the new version, I am aware of the issue with parallel building. 
Actually, I was the one signalling the issue [1].

However, I am still puzzled by another testing issue: on my box, 
test_upgrade_tls and test_upgrade_large_tls fail randomly when built with 
git-buildpackage and cowbuilder,
but not with debuild and dpkg-buildpackage. Therefore I suspect the use of 
chroots, but I did not manage to locate properly the issue. I also submit the 
problem upstream,
without success yet [2]. Your help would be much welcome on this one.

Best regards,
Bertrand
