I have uploaded 1.0.1 package, which solves most of the issues mentioned in
this thread. Still two of the programs miss manpages and the loadable
module is in /usr/lib. I will consider moving the manpage-less programs out
of /usr/bin, as they probably aren't all that useful standalone. The
problem here is that arts packages use /usr/lib as well (so the bug is
really in arts and not in my packages). I can't relocate the module,
because arts won't find it otherwise. :/. But the package should be in
relatively good shape other than this. The package, as it is in kalyxo
archive, should be uploadable. It has appropriate closes: in changlog.
