+  TODO:
+  - I think d/NEWS is not needed in this case; the note in the README is not
+    new, and debian never had the versions with the old behaviour
+    (the diff looks a bit misleading since it mentions the current version in
+    the same paragraph ...)
+  - d/control:
+    Build-Depends: "perl" --> Build-Depends-Indep (at least that's where we
+    put it usually, although it can be argued that B-D is more correct);
+    drop "perl-modules" (gets pulled in by perl, the split is just an
+    implementation detail of the perl source package, and the perl maintainers
+    encourage to just (build) depend on perl)
+  - d/control: Maintainer should be the perl group and not an individual
+    (which should be in Uploaders); carnil sent mails about those packages to
+    the list and the people; we can either change it or wait for replies (tach
+    seems to be busy now), or upload without a change now ...
+  - adding a build dependency on traceroute would enable an additional test;
+    I'm not sure this works in each and every case though (it does here for
+    me). looking through t/95-sys-traceroute.t, setting AUTOMATED_TESTING
+    would be useful if we enable it. - hm, setting it might be good in any
+    case, since we can't guarantee it's built _without_ traceroute ...
 
   * Team upload.
   * d/copyright: Add upstream contact.
