Hi Andreas,

unfortunately I have to reject your package.

debian/copyright is almost perfect, but you missed the entry for 
  pysam-0.7.5/samtools/misc/md5.*
Upstream-Contact: seems to be not Heng Li but Andreas Heger. Does he 
really work at GLR so that the entry for "Files: *" is correct?
Meanwhile the pysam repository is no longer at Google but at GitHub.

Anyway, maybe you could also simplify things by combining all entries 
for Heng Li to only one big entry (btw. he has the copyright for more files).

Code duplication is bad and against Debian Policy 4.13. Nevertheless 
there seems to be a reason for it, so it should be documented somewhere 
in the package and not only appear on the mailling list. It would be 
nice if you could poke the samtools upstream to introduce a library. 
Maybe he also likes cake ...

   Thorsten
