Hi werdahias,

Thank you for your support and for getting in touch!

I originally intended to package caligula myself, but my initial attempt was 
blocked due to some unresolved dependencies. I’m planning to give it another 
try soon.

If possible, I’d really appreciate the opportunity to ask you a few questions 
during the packaging process.

Thanks again for your help!

Best regards
Dong
