I have looked at this package, which seems to be neglected by the DM.
There are outstanding bugs almost 2 years old.
One problem is that the package incorporates its own homegrown patch
system, which fails, because there are no patches in the package.
Another problem is that the korean, russian and uk language components
fail to build properly.
At some point in time, it was possible to build binary packages from
this package, and these are in the hardy archives, even the korean etc.
components that now fail.
Unless the upstream maintainer of the package, or the LoCo teams take
charge of this package, there is not much we can do.
