Dear Maintainer,

- The last upload was 2013 and it has been not in testing since Jan 2017.

- It is not installable in sid (see #868882 above):

This makes me wonder if we should retire this package.

If you don't think so, please fix your package.

If you also think that it shoulw be removed, just reassign it to the
ftp.debian.org pseudo package.

If there is no answer, I will reassing the bug for removal in exactly 3 months.

Thanks!
