hi Diego,

copyright:
* various copyright holders listed in d/copyright don't have their names
appear anywhere in the sources. Please refresh and/or add comment
fields detailing what the affected entries are based on.
* upstream email address is outdated.

rules:
* docs are always build, regardless of build profile. Please add a check
to avoid running the sphinx commands for the 'nodoc' profile.
* why not enable all hardening?

Package ftbfs when build twice in a row (missing d/clean entries?).
Excerpt from the build log:
dpkg-source: info: local changes detected, the modified files are:
python-jellyfish-0.8.8/jellyfish.egg-info/PKG-INFO
python-jellyfish-0.8.8/jellyfish.egg-info/SOURCES.txt


Please remove the moreinfo tag (and CC me directly) once you have an
updated package ready.

The extra copyright holders were added during the initial ITP review
[1], and it seems they corresponded to the upstream git contributors to
each individual file by the time of the 0.5-3 release. I have refreshed
d/copyright to ensure it matches the authors explicitly mentioned in
upstream current LICENSE file and other headers.

Pinging back after tackling the rest of the issues too - thanks (once
again)!
