About the getty-run.NEWS in a previous RFS(#1057098):

You've misunderstood me with NEWS file (but this is not a stopper for
the upload.)

What I meant is that the NEWS file is that old that it should be
removed. (Debhelper just pointed me to the file, even if it did
not correctly disagnose the issue)
This is even more correct if debhelper decided to strip out that
version from d/changelog anyways, users will not get this NEWS
files displayed, and the information in it shouldn't be relveant
anymore.
So my suggestion would be to just rm it.

I prefer not to remove this for now, the info inside the file are
relevant for me (as maintainer) since I would like to remove the
links in getty-run.links in the future (they are kind of a policy
violation) but I face the same issue as Dmitry..

Lorenzo
