Can you please be more specific about:
a) how to build the version that should be uploaded, e.g. exactly which
upstream version or orig.tar.gz it should be built from?
b) how to name the upload?
c) what tests would you recommend, if any, for the newly built package?
Should this be tracked in the existing bug report or a new bug report
against this package?
