    Extra spaces at the begining of the Depends Fields.
    Honestly, I don't care about these

I: abcl: arch-dep-package-has-big-usr-share 8187kB 99%
I: abcl-source: arch-dep-package-has-big-usr-share 4376kB 100%

    Any reason these packages are architecture specific? Both of them
    look like the same binary would work on any architecture.

I: abcl: hyphen-used-as-minus-sign usr/share/man/man1/abcl.1.gz:31
I: abcl: hyphen-used-as-minus-sign usr/share/man/man1/abcl.1.gz:32
I: abcl: hyphen-used-as-minus-sign usr/share/man/man1/abcl.1.gz:50

    Should be easy to fix, right? btw have you sent your manpage upstream?

I: abcl: package-contains-empty-directory usr/share/doc/abcl/examples/google-app-engine/src/META-INF/
I: abcl: package-contains-empty-directory usr/share/doc/abcl/examples/google-app-engine/war/WEB-INF/classes/META-INF/
I: abcl: package-contains-empty-directory usr/share/doc/abcl/examples/google-app-engine/war/WEB-INF/classes/abcl_ae/
I: abcl: package-contains-empty-directory usr/share/doc/abcl/examples/google-app-engine/war/WEB-INF/lib/
I: abcl: package-contains-empty-directory usr/share/doc/abcl/examples/google-app-engine/war/fasls/

    These look like it might actually right to keep it the way it
    already is.

W: abcl-source: extra-license-file usr/share/abcl-source/LICENSE

    Just delete that after dh_install -- the content is already in
    debian/copyright

Other notes
~~~~~~~~~~~

Looks quite well actually. Just the hint to abcl-source in abcl's
description looks a bit misplaced.

Maybe someone else can help here?

Regards
