Hi Christoph,

I don't know the answer to your question, as I don't own an IC-R5, but
the package actually is installed according to popcon.  Of course, this
might be solely via the Recommends in hamradio-rigcontrol.

Since it looks fairly simple to update, I volunteer to update it to keep
it around for at least one more cycle.  It seems like a small investment
to make, and maybe it helps a few users.

Cheers,
tony
