1. "Those can't be striped out, please see changelog entry for 0.9.8k-7ubuntu2 and 0.9.8k-7ubuntu3 for more information"
Due to dpkg-source 3.0 (quilt), they can be stripped out. debian/patches/debian-changes-0.9.8n-1ubuntu1 is created containing those patches. Please split them and give them propper DEP-3 headers.
2. The clean rules is not clean enough. Running "debuild" twice does not work (log attached).
3. Please have a look at the Lintian errors and warnings (attached). Some of them should be resolved upstream (for example, spelling-error-in-binary). All Lintian warnings imported from Debian [1] should be resolved there first and then merged to Ubuntu. For merging 0.9.8n-1 you should fix the Ubuntu specific Lintian warnings.
Please resubscribe ubuntu-sponsors once these three points are addressed. We are at the beginning of the release cycle and therefore I am more picky.
4. debian/rules could get more love (e.g. using dh 7). This should be done in Debian first.
