i cannot upload, but i can have a look:

debian/control:
 current standards-version is 3.9.2

debian/control:
 Uploaders field has a stray trailing comma

debian/control:
 any reason why you are so picky about the debhelper version?
 as jonas has pointed out before (e.g in the recent pd-zexy thread),
debhelper-7 is even in oldstable, so you might happily use "debhelper".
(i know you care about ubuntu a lot, and i don't know the exact
situation there)

debian/control:
 Depends on "pd",but there "pd" is only a virtual package, and you
should provide a real one first.
this is also caught by lintian:
W: pd-pdstring: virtual-package-depends-without-real-package-depends
depends: pd
something like this should fix the problem:
Depends: puredata-core | pd

debian/copyright:
 is it really true that moocow holds the copyright for files in debian/?
 no file in debian/ has an explicit copyright notice (why), but i still
doubt that moocow did the debian packaging.
 also config.* and some other files seem to have different copyright holders

debian/patches/add-meta-file.patch:
 this patch is actually unneeded.
 you could simply put the pdstring-meta.pd into debian/ and install it
directly from there
 btw, you could also use debian/install to install the file, rather than
adding a dh_override

debian/README.Debian
 quite a long line :-)
 more important, i cannot load pdstring following your advice in
README.Debian: [declare -stdlib extra/pdstring] will do nothing (on
reload), only [declare -lib pdstring] helps

debian/watch
 it seems that the name is not mangled correctly, i get
<snip>
Newest version on remote site is 0.10-2, local version is 0.10.2
pd-pdstring: remote site does not even have current version
</snip>
 try something like:
 opts="uversionmangle=s/-/./"


thanks for bringing this package to debian,
