Ubuntu follows the DFSG rules, too. Therefore the same rules apply whether we accept a package in Ubuntu or not.

The problem with waf (besides upstream being hostile against packaging it) is shipping a waf script containing a binary blob. The solution is to replace the waf script with a blob by the (bigger) waf source code script (which is fully editable).

The Vcs-Bzr and Vcs-Browser links should point to the packaging branches. I think the ubuntu:dioden branch should be used (once it's in the archive) and therefore the Vcs-* entries should be removed.

Just a personal remark: Do you have a reason to use cdbs? IMO, the short format dh (version 9) is better than cdbs.
