Bug Description
I first found the issue reported here: http://
and I am seeing the same output.
When generating debian/copyright, python-mkdebian appears to be pulling copyright lines from multiple files which is fine, but then I end up with a section of debian/copyright that looks like this:
Files: *
Copyright: (C) 2012 Aaron Haviland <<email address hidden>>
Copyright: (C) 2012 Aaron Haviland <<email address hidden>
Copyright: (C) 2012 Aaron Haviland <email address hidden>
The bad lines are coming from data/ui/
./data/
./data/
./data/

While I'm not sure if the attached patch is the best solution, it certainly seems the easiest: Ignore the Glade .ui files when searching for copyright strings.
