Other issues to check:

'pkg' doesn't seem to care for file permissions even in system wide
installations. So it should be checked that the package files are
readable/executable by all users. A current maintainer Makefile
automatically sets the correct permissions in tarball creation so that
later checking isn't necessary.

Contains no hidden files, results of configure runs, etc.. Again, this
should be cared for by the maintainer Makefile so that later checking
isn't necessary.

Version number in src/configure.ac, if this file is present.
