Have you reached out to Wim about why the repo has a different name than the Fedora source package? And a request for git tags. I'm wanting to create the package in the next few days so I can reach out instead if you're busy. I figure I'll just use the existing Debian repo, rename the source package fields and gbp import-orig the forked version. So we would use the same binary names and package split as the existing non-free Debian package, just with a higher version number. Does that sound fine? Thank you, Jeremy Bícha
