Hi,

If anyone wants to take over I'm more than fine with that. The amount of work I 
have at the moment barely permits me from maintaining projects. It's most 
sensible that someone actively using this project on Debian maintains it, as 
is, I'm not using it much anymore and am not working in HPC at the moment. The 
bug should definitely reported upstream. Upgrading the package should be fairly 
simple though - the dependencies are already in place, as are simple tests/git 
integration etc.: https://github.com/azet/lmod-deb

Thanks,
Aaron
