Hi Daniel, While looking at the package, I noticed that the Vcs-Git field does not currently point to a location that anonymous users can clone. I also found that the Homepage link is invalid, and that the URL mentioned in bug #624461 no longer exists. Reading through the bug logs from 2013/2014, it seemed you had planned some updates, but I understand how other priorities can easily take over. Given the current situation, I wonder whether it might make sense to move the packaging to a Debian team repository on Salsa and mark the package as orphaned, to make its maintenance status clearer. This could also make it easier for anyone interested to pick it up and continue the work. What do you think? This package was highlighted in the Bug of the Day[1] initiative, which aims to introduce newcomers to manageable tasks and guide them through the workflow to solve them. The focus of this initiative is on migrating packages to Salsa, as it's a great way to help newcomers become familiar with a consistent Git-based workflow. Kind regards and thank you for your work on this software Andreas.
