Final Comment

The debian/copyright lists the author as Ato Araki (with a comment noting
the @atotto handle). However, the source files (e.g., clipboard.go)
explicitly state Copyright 2013 @atotto. All rights reserved..

Because the BSD-3-Clause license requires verbatim reproduction of the
copyright notice, the exact string @atotto found in the source headers must
be included in the Copyright: field of debian/copyright. Leaving it out or
only having it in the Comment: field strictly speaking violates the verbatim
reproduction requirement of the license.

Please fix this in your next upload by updating debian/copyright, and produce
their real name in a Comment field or similar.
