I just tried this package that I did not know.
Two remarks:
- I find very strange to get notification when upgrading to sid about
packages not supported
- I find very inconvenient to get message during the upgrade
that require that I click on "ok". Debconf have been developped
so that all questions (but very specific ones) are ask *before*
the upgrade. debian-security-support regularly stops the upgrade
asking for a confirmation.
So, on all my systems (but one perhaps), I will remove this package.

Vincent
