Somehow `apt source` cannot find persp-projectile, and I see that there is actually a "debian/1:0.2.0-4" tag created but the change is not merged to master since I worked on it, so I just merged from the tag and resolved the conflicts. Also rebuilt and pushed to mentors[1]. PTAL, TIA! [1] https://mentors.debian.net/package/persp-projectile/ -- Xiyue Deng
