I had a look at Lintian warning and they are trivial to fix - warnings (online) themselves have links with information how to get rid of them. Again, let me know if you need any help.

Bug#693705: package not updated in over 5 years
Hello Raf, I have tried to submit updates via Debian Mentors but the packages always seem to be denied for various reasons. The latest update seems to have just a couple issues that should be fairly easily fixable. I hope to have them fixed and an update submitted for consideration soon. Wish me luck!

This version of podget has been released nearly 6 years ago and there have been several realeses since then, with the newest one (0.6.7) being released over half a year ago.
