Jerry,
I committed the latest changes I had to make in order to successfully
build sarge packages.
They are under debian-sarge

There are other 2 directories named debian-unstable and debian-woody.
They are probably very well outdated, so you may want to actually get
rid of them and import etch's debian/ directory in the tree instead.
I don;t think we need to maintain also a debian-unstable one unless you
are willing to build for unstable or someone else is willing to send
back changes when they are done in Debian.

Simo.
