There is a general problem, that all over the internet are instructions widespread, on how to package for debian and ubuntu. And they are all different. Is this case I have as usual found an open bug in ubuntu and solved it. I'm neither the creator of the upstream nor a user of this software. I just followed one of the online instructions: http://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/packaging-new-software.html as I usually do it.
No I don't intent to upload this to Debian. I also read somewhere (in one of the Debian instruction guides) that mentors.debian.net is outdated and should only be used if a Debian Developer wants it from me.
I've followed the packing guide and provide the software in a PPA so Ubuntu users can easily download and use it. That is my intent.
