A review: Maybe libthai0/libthai-data shouldn't have any docs (README/TODO/etc) in them since those are mostly automatically installed, instead it should go in the -dev package and the -doc package. Good to see you are using a symbols file, mole says you need different symbols files for different arches: http://qa.debian.org/cgi-bin/mole/seedsymbols?pkgname=libthai0 I also note that the seedsymbols script indicates that some functions have been removed, but the ABI has not been increased. The -doc package installs stuff to /usr/share/doc/libthai0-doc, shouldn't it be /usr/share/doc/libthai-doc? Your shlibs says >= 0.1.7 but the max version in your symbols file is 0.1.6. I'm not sure what the machine-readable copyright proposal says, but I expected to see copies of the "this is GPL" blurbs from the source code in debian/copyright I don't see filenames in the Licence line in the copyright proposal. I think there are supposed to be commas between the authors and each author should have their own copyright years? Why do you copy config.sub/guess in clean rather than in configure? CFLAGS doesn't seem to be passed to configure? Please rewrite the descriptions considering the audience for each of them. libthai0/libthai-data will always be automatically installed, libthai-dev will sometimes be automatically installed (build-dep) and libthai-doc should be only installed by humans. libthai0/-data could have a one-line description, the amount of info in the -dev and -doc descriptions should reflect who will be looking for them.
