well then, let's see. ;)
debian/control:
* The Vcs-* fields are meant to point to the packaging repository,
not the upstream repository. Please move the upstream homepage from
the Vcs-Browser field to the Source field in debian/copyright.
debian/copyright:
* Your upstream sources do not contain any documentation of the
copyright and License. This is very bad, please convince your
upstream of including such a file.
Alternatively, there are chances that these information are
embedded into the font files and can be extracted, see e.g.
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-fonts/fonts-croscore.git/tree/debian/copyright
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/pkg-fonts/fonts-crosextra-caladea.git/tree/debian/copyright
Anyway, please document where you got the idea for the Copyright
and License fields from . ;)
* As mentioned before, the Source field should point to the website
where you have downloaded the sources, e.g. the Releases page on
Github.
* The blank line before the License paragraph breaks parsing of this
file. Please do either remove this line or duplicate it right below
the Copyright line.
* There is no Copyright/License information given for debian/*.
Please chose a simple license such as e.g.
https://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/License-Notices-for-Other-Files.html
debian/dirs:
* Not needed, please remove.
debian/docs:
* Empty, please remove.
debian/README.source:
* Not needed, please remove.
debian/rules:
* Only lines 1, 21 and 22 are needed, please remove the others.
debian/watch:
* Missing, please consider adding this file.
So, that's it so far for my review.
Cheers,
Fabian
