At this point in time, nothing. Too late I'm afraid. > It would be great to have package in backports repo for Jessie That will not happen because in order for a package to be able to be in jessie-backports it's very same version should be available in stretch. And we can't push it to stretch now. It might be possible to add it to stretch-backports once we get it into testing (ie, after stretch's release) but I am not really interested in doing it myself.
