Thank you very much for this pointer.
Maybe it is good idea check this repo. Is it easy to create a deb package?
Do you mean you want to try to do it yourself ?
You'd need to learn to use "git-buildpacke" to import the new release on top of existing
...and see what changed.
I _did_ noticed the name change ri-li <-> li-ri
put I don't think a whole new packaging from scratch is needed/appropriate.
There would be various mechanisms possible to transition new name to choose from.
Greetings
