Niels Thykier announced[1] that this package is a candidate for removal. I'm not a user of this package, so can not judge if the patch is sufficient, but it is comitted as is already some time upstream. Do you plan to upload the package applying the patch? Please note that this should happen before of the 26th october. [1]: http://lists.debian.org/debian-release/2012/10/msg00817.html Regards, Salvatore
