I am afraid I don't have the power to add new features, my knowledge
in C++ is not enough, but I certainly can fix some segfaults and other
kinds of bugs, I know some Gtk and am trying to improve on this,
I hope I'll soon be able to get some work done on further development
to gnome-apt, fixes and code contributions will always be welcome,
as usual =).
I'll wait for some more reply, if no one objects I'll upload the
hijacked package, not the NMU, tomorrow.
[]s!
