I am not the maintainer, as per this
<https://groups.google.com/forum/#!searchin/sage-devel/polybori/sage-devel/9Uhnvm3wef8/kkGxWZ9QR0gJ>
discussion or the ticket(s) attached to it, I expressly was not interested
in being the maintainer (nor do I have any time now or in the foreseeable
future to maintain it). However, despite that discussion no one stepped,
and given that I think that it would be best to pursue the other path
proposed in that discussion which was the removal of brial/polybori as a
standard package (likely making it experimental given that it is
unmaintained).
