Done. Thanks.

Done.

Done. But I haven't made the git repo on vasks yet. Before doing that
I think we should decide on the package name. Originally I used
sjjb-map-icons but then I used sjjbmapicons as existing package names
have '-' for some special usage. eg. -data -dbg -doc, and also
libboost-foo, python- to split up the boost, python libraries, etc.

I'm not really sure which is better sjjb-map-icons or sjjbmapicons,
but I think maybe the second due to the special use of '-' in existing
packages. What do you think? After I know what to use, I'll make it
consistent within the package and make the git repo on vasks, with all
my changes.

Listing the directory in debian/clean didn't work dh_clean says:
rm: cannot remove `pngall': Is a directory
dh_clean: rm -f -- pngall returned exit code 1

Done.

I'm not sure, but I've changed it now to avoid doing this.

I can upload these changes to git.debian.org once we sort out the package name.

Thanks for you help.
