Package: xtla
Version: 1.2-1
Severity: important

While looking to do an NMU to fix the RC bug #391828, I've found that
the "debian" diff for this package is nothing of the sort. The debian/
directory is included in the upstream tarball (which is normally
strongly recommended against), and the diff is simply some trivial
changes in the configure script.

Please fix this, either:

 a) make the package properly native (with no diff);

 b) (better) ship a clean upstream tar.gz with the Debian packaging
    setup in the diff

While you're at it, there are several other issues that should be
fixed, as found by a lintian check:

E: xtla source: build-depends-indep-should-be-build-depends debhelper
W: xtla source: out-of-date-standards-version 3.6.2 (current is 3.7.2)
W: xtla: old-fsf-address-in-copyright-file

Thanks,

You raise the blade, you make the change... You re-arrange me 'til I'm sane...
