</div>I wasn't convinced flagging it as an NMU was appropriate given that I was<br>
packaging a new upstream source, so I didn't do that.<br>
<br>
The "package-name-doesnt-match-sonames" error is something the previous<br>
package had (it's because it uses -release in LDFLAGS rather than<br>
-version-info). It's easy to change, but I wasn't sure what the right<br>
answer was and thus stuck with the previous version's solution.<br>

</div>All of the patches are already in quilt. The rest of the changes are the<br>
result of DEB_AUTO_UPDATE_AUTOMAKE regenerating the upstream <a href="http://Makefile.in" target="_blank">Makefile.in</a><br>
files; I've regenerated the source packages without this problem (sorry<br>
about that).<br>
