Just another piece of information which may be relevant for anyone
interested in taking care of the package: It looks like the project was
pretty active until Feb 11, 2016, but there are no commits after that. I
don't know if you've tried building the latest git version or only the
latest development release.

As an update would bring major changes, a re-review would probably a
good idea anyway.
