To ease the conversion process, I'd like to ask you to use this format
(which is nearly the same compared to what you initially used):
---------------------------------------------------------------
darcs (0.9.0)
* Initial Release.

---------------------------------------------------------------
This is basically what dpkg-buildpackage uses and a "correct"
./debian/changelog can simply be generated by
cat ./ChangeLog | sed -e 's/^darcs.*$/& unstable; urgency=low/' \
> ./debian/changelog
I'd offer to convert the current ./ChangeLog to this format :)
MfG, JBG
