I have added a patch to address the FTBFS. Unfortunately, this package doesn't run tests and getting them working is going to take some effort. The patch is straight-forward. It eliminates usage of a few long-deprecated classes in favor of their replacements, or uses some factory-like methods to instantiate objects. However, it would be nice to have at least some sort of runtime checks before uploading, which may take me a few days. I have pushed the changes to the repo if anyone is ready to move ahead with an upload. If not, I will try to upload by early next week. Thanks, tony
