Hi Steve,

If the package is orphaned, then I will consider to adopt it.  So, if
possible for you, no immediate removal please.

If I adopt the package, then I intend to package a newer upstream
release and see how the autobuilders deal with that, before studying the
patches in the BTS.  This approach has saved me some time before. :)

Regards,

Bart Martens
