It would be fantastic if you could do that! I've actually been trying to write Josselin a number of times since June 2020 about this, but I haven't managed to get a substantive response yet. I'm not sure if he's still the Debian maintainer or if he is gone now. Fortunately the project has been resurrected and is actively maintained. It's even Debianized for a stable and unstable PPA. But that's not much help to Debian users if they don't know about it because we can't get it back into the respository. -- Kip Warner -- Senior Software Engineer OpenPGP signed/encrypted mail preferred https://www.thevertigo.com
