Re: Please sponsor upload of aghermann-0.5.1



> Ok, autoreconf shadows are defeated now.

congrats! thanks!

for the next uploads -- please make debian/changelog entries
informative -- primarily document changes which were done to the content
of debian/, e.g. in this case use of 'dh $@ --with autoreconf' so later
on it would be possible from it to deduce in which version/revision
packaging was changed and how  (I would not mind if you retroactively
adjust them now for the previous ones, e.g. for 0.5.1, which never hit
Debian, it should be UNRELEASED instead of unstable :-P)

building now and if everything is smooth -- will upload, otherwise you
will hear from me again ;)
