Yes, you are correct, that is what it means.

And if bugs are going to be opened because of any missing functionality, we
can always forward the bugs upstream :)

I am guessing that means that the package in Debian will be missing some
functionality, rather than this preventing it from being in Debian
entirely.

Hi Roberto,

The merge request of Bastian was now merged into the master branch.

Thank you @Bastian, for contributing to Debian.

I am now working on importing the newest upstream, and building the
package, then to test the package.

Everything is going well, so I am happy.

If only the upstream maintainers would complete their WebKit2 editor, that
would be so good :)
It is WebKit (version 1) now. So Bastian had reworked on the patch to work
around it. Because WebKit (version 1) is not included in Debian unstable.

Teus.
