+==============================================
+
+Target: https://gt.uo1.net/mikhail/g15macro
+Base commit: beab6f13cf0d248209cbf2578073859232ec07dd (configure.ac: 1.0.5).
+
+Source: Debian g15macro 1.0.3-3 source package, using the previously
+extracted debian-patched tree from g15macro_1.0.3.orig.tar.gz and
+g15macro_1.0.3-3.diff.gz. Archive location:
+https://archive.debian.org/debian/pool/main/g/g15macro/
+
+SHA-256 values recomputed locally and matched against the accompanying
+g15macro_1.0.3-3.dsc Checksums-Sha256 entries:
+  g15macro_1.0.3.orig.tar.gz
+    be4a5ba422777b330d09169fe505eae433aad7378c2eaf411ea591723b82ace2

+This checks archive integrity against the local descriptor, not authenticity:
+the descriptor's OpenPGP signature has not been verified for this import.
+
+The historical debian/ files and g15macro.1 preserve their content, including
+copyright, attribution, changelog, and legacy metadata. Debian packaging is
+unchanged apart from trailing blank-line differences introduced on import.
+credited to Giacomo A. Catenazzi; see debian/copyright and upstream COPYING.
+The manpage was introduced by the Debian 1.0.3-1 packaging.
+
+The Debian linker change is reconciled rather than applied wholesale:
+the fork already links -lpthread. Add -Wl,--no-add-needed to both Makefile.am
+and Makefile.in, keeping their LIBS consistent (the historical Debian patch
+added that flag only to Makefile.am). Do not restore old -avoid-version or
+replace the fork's generated build files with the 1.0.3 versions.
+
+This is NOT a new Debian release. The changelog deliberately still identifies
+1.0.3-3, whereas the fork identifies itself as 1.0.5. A maintainer must choose
+and document an appropriate package version before publishing packages.
+No Debian 13 build or hardware/runtime validation is claimed.
+
+Modernization remains separate work: debhelper compatibility 5, CDBS,
+historical dependencies/policy/watch URLs, obsolete --enable-ttf and
+--disable-rpath configure arguments, and chrpath behavior need review.
+The fork's generated Makefile.in also still references configure.in rather
+than configure.ac; regenerate/validate Autotools as part of build work.
+No macro-engine changes or outer packaging integration are included.
