I have updated the changelog to be more verbose. Is there anything
else I should mention in it?

Thanks for pointing that out. I noticed that upstream changed license
to LGPL-2 in commit 037b259. Anyway, I have updated the
debian/copyright file to reflect this change and to include the
missing copyright holders.

Also, I have updated debian/watch and get-orig-source in debian/rules
to point to github.com/minetest/minetest because upstream moved there.
