Bug#972887: libgstreamer1-perl: Deprecated upstream

You're right! This one is https://github.com/frezik/GStreamer1. The GNOME one, that I was referring to, was previously packaged as libgstreamer-perl (removed in 2015: #799327). Sorry for the confusion. Shall I close this bug? I close it with this mail. Nonetheless, the upstream for libgstreamer1-perl has also been quite inactive over the past years. I will ping Perl people that I know if they are interested in taking over upstream maintenance. Sounds great, thanks! :) I have pinged the original upstream maintainer and he is open to finding a new upstream. Will see if my Perl friends at $COMPANY will want to take over.
