[Pkg-security-team] Some problems with T50 packaging

[Samuel Henrique]

Hi team and Marco

I'm writing this because i saw some problems in the packaging of T50 and i
would like to help and discuss about how to deal with then, by the way, the
current maintainer of T50 is Marco, and i would like to ask to co-maintain
T50 with you, if that's ok.

debian/changelog: I believe somebody forgot to clear the Kali leftovers
from the changelog, is that a problem? If not, anyway, can we clear then
and left only the first entry related to the Debian release? I beliebe it
would be cleaner.

pristine-tar: The first tarball uploaded to this branch was the kali one,
from 5.4.1 (first debian shipped version is 5.6.4), is that a a problem?
Can we reset the pristine-tar branch with 5.6.4?
Please also note that no upstream tags were made yet, so i believe it would
be less intrusive to reset pristine-tar.
If somebody clones t50 packaging repo from our team and tries gbp
buildpackage, the build will fail because gbp will try to build the kali
version: "dpkg-deb: building package 't50' in
'../t50_5.4.1-rc1-1kali1_amd64.deb'."

[serious]debian/patches/set-proper-compiler-flags.patch:
The -march=native and -O3 flags were left intact, this is causing FTBFS on
4 of the main architectures[1] and should be fixed asap.

debian/watch: Bump to v4.

Plus some trailling whitespace problems, nothing that a wrap-and-sort can't
fix.

BTW, Marco, I believe you have some problem with your email server, gmail
is gently putting all your emails on the spam folders because
"Ela possui um endereço de remetente em yahoo.es, mas não passou nos testes
de autenticação obrigatórios de yahoo.es".
