Doesn't matter to me. mouseemu might even be useful on other architectures
(trackpads with only two buttons; the trackpad block while typing), and a
powerpc desktop user shouldn't be forced to install mouseemu only to get
the other powerpc-utils tools. I'm fine with powerpc-utils being a kitchen
sink type of package to some extent but that's too much :-)

The package is done, Guido just doesn't want to make it official himself.
Your name didn't show up on the developer database, how are you going to
maintain an official package?
