I have packaged latest upstream version 2.9.1, cherry pick changes from mentors 
and fix several build depends, format security hardening flags, ... it now 
builds fine.

As it is a new upstream release, changes shown via debdiff are massive, so I am 
not sure how would you like to proceed. I can either upload what I have 
somewhere, so you can have a review, or I can just NMU what I have.

Do you have any preference?

Cheers,
