Source: gfsview
Version: 20121130+dfsg-5
Severity: serious
Justification: missing source

While trying to fix gfsview, I noticed that the source of gfsview is
incomplete. debian/Makefile.in is quite obviously generated from
debian/Makefile.am, but debian/Makefile.am is missing. I'm not sure what
this file is used for. Potentially, just deleting it is sufficient.

Looking further debian/copyright assigns the copyright of debian/* to
the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research. According to
debian/changelog and the git logs, Anton Gladky should somehow be
visible in debian/copyright unless he specifically assigns his
copyright. This seems strange at least.

Given these findings, I suggest doing a NEW-like review by ftp masters.
