The package at mentors.debian.org is just a backport of the Ubunutu package 
and does not fit the debian package rules like copyright etc.

The packages for 0.3.0 are ready for weeks but my uploader is too busy with

New 0.2.0 packages containing the security patch will be available today.

THX and take care,
