Hej Jordi
The package is in good shape, I still need to update the copyright file.
The only thing I don't get is the new lintian warnings.
I spent some hours trying to get what the hardening-no-fortify-functions
and hardening-no-stackprotector means and how to fix that within the
mame build system (which seems not so easy to me as the CFLAGS are
redefined inside the mame makefile)

I have to say it is a bit demoralizing each time I try to package a new
mame release, appears a bunch of supplementary lintian warnings which
takes me hours to understand and fix ...

What is your opinion ? I can certainly update the copyright file before
the upcoming freeze, but I can't make no guarantee about how long it
would take to integrate the hardening dpkg-buildflags properly.

I used mentors.debian.net as a playground for dput, so it's possible to
have a look at the package and its lintian warning here:
