Hi Torsten! :-) I have prepared a new version of animal, it is already on mentors.[1] I haven't changed it much, except for a minor bit in debian/rules generation of shlibs, and rebuilding the autotools from the latest Debian sources. I'm CC-ing this to debian-mentors in case others may have comment.
