OK. I was just wondering if you had contacted him. If he didn't suggest it, then there's probably no need to pursue that any further. > I just made a new upstream release to fix a couple of open issues and > have updated the debian package on mentors.debian.net to the latest > version (1.3.4). I've build and tested this version, and overall it looks great. It's lintian clean, builds fine, and functions as expected. One small thing I noticed was that the Build-Depends in debian/control on autotools-dev seems unnecessary. I can build the package without it in a clean sid chroot. Thanks!
