To my knowledge there's no specific *policy* within Debian which
explicitly lays out how to deal with this particular circumstance in
detail. Common sense and courtesy, however, would dictate that you
abide by the wishes of the software's author(s) while possibly
engaging them in a civilized discussion to better understand their
position and any potential compromises (for example, working with
them to provide debs and public apt repositories integrated with
their version control and release scripts).
