Final Comment

On unpacking I get this error from dpkg-source:

Signing key on 3133724D6207881579E95D621E1356881DD8D791 is not bound:
No binding signature at time 2026-01-22T04:51:34Z
because: Policy rejected non-revocation signature (PositiveCertification) requiring second pre-image resistance
because: SHA1 is not considered secure since 2023-02-01T00:00:00Z
dpkg-source: warning: cannot verify inline signature for /usr/src/dfsg/debian-reference_2.133.2.dsc: no acceptable signature found

Also, it seems that source/format has an unexpected second line in it which could be fixed.

I think that the debian reference - especially - should follow policy on this, so I am rejecting
it for now. Feel free to e-mail me or discuss in https://matrix.to/#/#debian-dfsg:matrix.debian.social
if you have reasons why I should accept as-is.

Thanks!
