Well, that's the part where I'm confused. If Joonas or I package the 
dependency, can we get it into the Koha APT repo ASAP? 

My first priority is resolving Bug 13193 as soon as possible. Martin has 
already agreed to push the change, but we're just waiting on the dependency 
being available. I figure it'll be in the Koha APT repo before it's in Debian 
stable (one way or another), so I'm trying to facilitate getting that 
dependency in there one way or another. 

If Joonas or I can package the dependency and submit it somewhere or to someone 
to get it into the Koha APT repository, I'm sure we'd both make the time to do 
so. That's really what I'd like to know at this point.

Otherwise, I imagine we might package it but maintain it locally, and that 
seems suboptimal for everyone. (But is more optimal than leaving the bug 
unpatched.)

It's really not much more than packaging it to a reasonable standard to get it 
in the Koha APT repo, and then maintaining it forever.
Which if it doesn't end up in Debian, becomes your responsibility.
