Oh, sorry, I though you were talking about a *new* package. As this is indeed about updating an existing package, I see less problems...:-) I haven't checked yet (and I'm not in a position to do so right now), but is this a package that you were previously already maintaining or is this taking the package over from the previous maintainer. Anyway, I'll have a look at the package and send you some feedback. Just need a bit of patience as I have no idea yet when I can take time to look at this. Adding this to my TODO pile..:)
