Markus replied to me and reminded me that I shouldn't use the tarball
but the current git repository for the moment.

What I did, resulting in successful tests. Since Lintian didn't complain
(and for me personally everything looks good), I uploaded the package;
it should appear on NEW soon (which has a long queue in the moment,
unfortunately).

Thank you very much for the help, and I am open for more comments :-)

Best regards

Ole
