Thank you for your report.

This package intentionally targets i386/amd64 systems. From my understanding of upstream's documentation[1], it would not be of use on other architectures. If you find it useful on MIPS and it is trivially buildable for that platform, please open another bug and I can investigate further.

User-installed libraries should go in /usr/local/lib, per the FHS[2]. [2]: http://www.pathname.com/fhs/ > Please use the default search path if you can, and please consider fix > this. Sure; I can investigate whether the custom path is droppable. If you get to it beforehand, feel free to attach a debdiff which I can apply. However for the reasons above I don't think this is too critical; please correct me if any of my statements were mistaken.
