@pdqharvey you're right, the package i sent you privately is a different one as 
i hadn't done the patching and packaging properly to be published in a PPA at 
that stage as i was too busy - you can certainly share the .deb i sent you 
privately: as far as i can tell the only difference is that i hand't bumped the 
package version according to the ubuntu ppa packaging guidelines, but the 
patched code should be the same
@piedro you should be able to recompile my patched package from source by via 
apt-get source making sure apt fetches the source from my PPA and you can then 
change the package version string to anything suitable so that your upgrades 
don't break - if you are not familiar with Debian packaging, the relevant 
documentation should be all here:
