Hi, I'm the upstream maintainer of this software, and the debian package I've prepared for it has been uploaded by a sponsor.
I haven't made updates to the software in a long time, but it's still a relevant piece of software for as long as epic4 is in debian. I was not aware there were problems with the package, but I guess the package is pretty old now. I'm willing to prepare a new package and have it uploaded by a sponsor (hopefully) in near future. So for now there's no need to orphan the package. Of course a debian maintainer is always welcome to take over the packaging, as I'm personally not very active in the debian community.
