One tiny question in-line on the copyright. Once that is answered it looks ok to proceed.

I'm not sure about this change since Alf didn't actually modify anything here since 2019. @tsimonq2 is that correct?

Yes, I was not sure and would appreciate more detailed instructions on the copyright handling. I was checking the diff between 0.7.0 and the master branch and did not see any changes related to copyright. But maybe there are better ways to do it.

I guess, it makes also more sense to upload it first to the Debian archives?

Of course don't we actually make changes relative to the Debian files? If that's the case, maybe leave Alf's copyright but add ours from whenever we started packaging.

@apt-ghetto @tsimonq2 and @teward both agree that we should not change the Debian copyright. However, we should add in ours where needed.

We should probably make a little less of a fuss about copyright going forward. Kubuntu, like us, has a tendency to package from upstream and rely less on the merges. Asking there, they say that ideally the copyrights would get updated in those cases, but in practice, no. For packages not regulated to a flavor packageset, even where packaging changes are made to resolve merge conflicts, I think it's uncommon to see copyright changes. That said, I don't think we need to worry about this. Sorry for all the hassle, @apt-ghetto.
