Final Comment

Lintian has a couple of warnings about your debian/copyroght file, but I
read them twice and I can't figure out what's triggering it. It all looks
fine to me...

Thanks!

W: rust-io-timer source: missing-debian-watch-file-standard [debian/watch]
N: 
N:   The debian/watch file in this package doesn't start a version= line. The
N:   first non-comment line of debian/watch should be a version= declaration.
N:   This may mean that this is an old version one watch file that should be
N:   updated to the current version.
N: 
N:   Please refer to the uscan(1) manual page for details.

O: rust-io-timer source: missing-license-paragraph-in-dep5-copyright gpl-3+ [debian/copyright:31]
N: 
N:   The Files paragraph in the machine readable copyright file references a
N:   license for which no stand-alone License paragraph exists.
N:   
N:   Sometimes this tag appears because of incorrect ordering. Stand-alone
N:   License paragraphs must appear *after* all Files paragraphs.
N: 
N:   Please refer to
