Hello.
The package seems to build in Debian/unstable.
A few trivial suggestions or updates are attached.
You should probably forward the existing debian/patches/* that are not
specific to Debian, and see if the upstream project is active.
Efforts to keep the Debian package alive in the long run only make
sense if someone volunteers to "maintain" the upstream project, at
least in a minimal sense: collect patches and produce releases.
