Adam thanks for working on this. Yes this is a simple fix, and thanks for the patch.

When building the package I get a pydist warning concerning python-django-nose. This can be corrected by adding python-django-nose to Build-Depends.

When runing lintian -iIE horizon*changes I get:

It would be nice if you corrected these lintian warning or override them.

What concerns me the most is that debian/copyright does not conform to the DEP5 spec and the embedded font and java script libs.

Have a nice day
