I sent mail to the people listed in copyright and as AUTHORS :

$ more AUTHORS 
Martin Baulig (martin@home-of-linux.org)
Drazen Kacar (dave@srce.hr)
$ more copyright 
...
Upstream Authors: Radek Doul\xedk <doulik@karlin.mff.cuni.cz>,
                  Martin Baulig <martin@home-of-linux.org>

How was i to know that these are not the upstream of libgtop2 ?

So, could you give me the email address of Kevin Vandersloot, so i could
write to him ? Err, i just see you CCed him.

Ah, that explains many thing, but still, this is breaking many other
packages :

  gnome-applets2, hardware-monitor, netspeed, seti-applet,
  gnome-system-monitor, gnome-applets, bubblemon.

What would replace it if it is going to die ?
