I demand that Arturo Martinez may or may not have written...

  It looks like the author is no longer maintaining the plugin.
 
  Which leads me to a question...
  Has anybody thought of keeping a repository of plugins that the author
  himself no longer seems to maintain and try to keep a patched version
  available so that it compiles on modern systems?
   
  I guess the e-tobi .deb packages could manage that by having the
  compile-fixes as a patch in debian/patches/

 But that would only be for debian based systems, I use Archlinux for my 
 HTPC and I need source code tar balls.

Hmm? You would have that: .orig.tar.gz, either .diff.gz or .debian.tar.gz,
and .dsc (which you wouldn't need).

How long a minute is depends on which side of the bathroom door you're on.
