Thanks Alex.

Regarding the package changelog not getting updated I tried to test
the same on my precise system and I found no issues with quickly
package --extras with regards to email ID

In my system I get:

bhavani at bhavani-spagetti-monster:~/arb/pictoric-new/test$ cat debian/changelog

test (0.1) precise; urgency=low

  * Initial release.

And the quickly version I use on my system is

bhavani at bhavani-spagetti-monster:~$ apt-cache policy quickly
quickly:
  Installed: 12.04-0ubuntu2
  Candidate: 12.04-0ubuntu2
  Version table:
 *** 12.04-0ubuntu2 0
        500 http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/
precise-updates/universe i386 Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
     12.04-0ubuntu1 0
        500 http://nl.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ precise/universe i386 Packages

Could you please let us know the version of quickly you are using?
also could you please let us know the bashrc entries wrt DEBFULLNAME
and DEBEMAIL env vars?

Apart from that, just quickly went through your updated PPA package
and found the below points:

- The debhelper version in d/control and d/compat does not match (6 and 8)

- The email ID specified in d/copyright is invalid
(http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/dep/web/deps/dep5.mdwn?op=file&rev=135)

You might want to use:
http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/ and
update d/copyright according to the latest specification

Also a lintian check on your package throws out the below warnings:

W: pictoric source: unused-build-dependency-on-cdbs
W: pictoric source: package-needs-versioned-debhelper-build-depends 8
W: pictoric source: debhelper-overrides-need-versioned-build-depends
(>= 7.0.50~)
