As it turns out, the proper fix for this seems to be, that packages
using dh should use the gnome addon and drop uploaders.mk from debian/rules.
Grepping through our pkg-gnome SVN, I found

ekiga
gcr
gfbgraph
gnome-builder
gnome-calendar
gnome-characters
gnome-clocks
gnome-logs
gnome-maps
gnome-music
gnome-online-miners
gnome-photos
gnome-software
gnome-taquin
gsound
libproxy
libpwquality
libsecret
polari
pygobject

which are affected by this.

Any takers?
