As every year x-mas is coming closer and it is time to start xsnow to
get the right feeling. :-)

Unfortunately the package is only available for i386 and the maintainer,
Martin Lazar, seems not to react to the bug (#457742), that is open
since 2007. At least for amd64 it is pretty easy to build the package,
there is no need to alter. Just apt-get build-dep xsnow; debuild; dpkg
- -i ../xsnow*.deb.

There are also other bugs, partly with a patch but no reaction of
Martin.

Unfortunately I am no debian developer so I cannot take the package.

Well, it is not that important but xsnow is at least a nice program and
I do not want to miss it that times.

Regards
   Klaus
