Oh, sorry Rolf - I didn't see the mention that you were uploading the new RC6. I'm taking a look at that now.

Uh, first off, since this is a merge, not a sync, you should leave the old Ubuntu-specific changelog entries in the changelog, interleaved with the Debian changelog. (i.e. in sorted order).

I'm assuming you took this package from <http://eric.lavar.de/comp/linux/debian/>, since it's not in Debian? Do you know why this package hasn't been uploaded to Debian, since this guy appears to be the maintainer?

If we're pulling from somewhere that's not Debian, the package should have a -0ubuntu1 version number, I think, which would also mean that XSBC-Original-Maintainer should be set.

I'm not entirely sure how pulling a package with its own history from not-Debian works, though. I'll go ahead and re-sub u-u-s in the hopes that somebody else has a better idea.
