The changelog order is wrong, please check that.
Also Standards are not 3.8.0 still since it doesn't include homepage, for example, please check the checklist before bumping standards

Nicolas, thanks for catching that mistake in the changelog file. This is the first merge I have done where grab-merge.sh has failed to place the changelog entries in the correct order. In this new debdiff, I have manually gone and sorted the entries by date. Also, from what I have seen and heard, the Homepage field in debian/control is not a requirement for 3.8.0. If you look here: http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#s-binarycontrolfiles, you will see that the Homepage field is not marked as being Mandatory. As a result, the new debdiff still bumps the Standards-Version to 3.8.0.

This won't upload. Version 1.0.2-0.1ubuntu1 is lower than 1.0.2ubuntu2 actually into the archives, any changes need to be applied as a standard Ubuntu upload, this can be only merged when Debian maintainer will acknowledge NMU and upload an higher version number.

As this merge is not possible, I am changing the status to Won't Fix. Hopefully, the Debian maintainer will acknowledge the NMU, and enable us to merge the package for Jaunty.
