The packaging is ready and anybody wanting to build the package can 
find the sources in the Git repository[1]. Since Debian is in a freeze 
preparing to its next release, I asked the release team for a freeze 
exception[2]. It would be great to have the final release in 
Debian/wheezy.

The current Debian package is a snapshot of 2.5.2. Here's the list of 
the changed things:

      enabled (Closes: #693210)
