OK, I've tried doing xfce4-diskperf-plugin and I've got a few...

First, lintian is complaining that there are CVS directories in the 
package, should I do something about this?

Because it has quite an old aclocal.m4/ltmain.sh I've added code to 
update the autotools as in your changes the datetime plugin. Linda is 
complaining that the package depends on automake and autoconf. I can 
ignore this, right?

Finally, in the changelog Rudy wrote:

  * Updated libtool, put upstream's Autoconf macros into acinclude.m4

Do I need to do something about that, or is updating the autotools enough?
