I have not managed to sponsor for the update package :-((( The package contains some aspects little appropriate for Debian. For example many image files that have to be installed in a directory that is inappropriate for Debian (usr/lib/libreoffice/share/extensions). This generates complaints of lintian. There are other negative aspects [4] . The dmaths can be installed directly as a complement with ease. It may not be more appropriate to keep it as a package. I can do a new attempt to update the package in Debian but I don't have high hopes for success. Thank you for your interest! I.
