Hi,

sorry I missed that part in the last round - the correct target in
debian/changelog is still "unstable" because that's where all the
uploads go before they trickle into testing and eventually get
released as stable. For apt.pg.o the target distribution doesn't
matter, though.

It now worked even on my crammed notebook SSD :)

I could download the tarball now and build packages. I've already
built them for apt.pg.o, and promoted them to the *-pgdg
distributions, they will appear on the mirrors in about half an hour.

For Debian, I made two small changes:

--- a/debian/changelog
+++ b/debian/changelog
-amcheck (1.0-1) stable; urgency=medium
+amcheck (1.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium

--- a/debian/control.in
+++ b/debian/control.in
-Standards-Version: 3.9.6
+Standards-Version: 4.1.1

Maybe you could apply that, and possibly bump up the debian/1.0-1 tag
to reflect it (but that doesn't really matter much).

Is debian/pgversions intentionally not "9.4+"? We usually only list
explicit maximum versions if the newer versions are not supported on
purpose, and don't just "not work yet". (Though if the repo hosts both
upstream and debian/, that's probably ok.)

Thanks,
Christoph
