The Debian Med tasks are defined in the Blends project of Alioth where
you need to subscribe as well (or need to become a Debian Developer
;-).) Because I do not think it makes real sense to subscribe just to
inject this single package I added it for you.

Thanks for this nice preparation! The good news is that everything
except the first line (Depends) is obtained automagically if a package
is in VCS ... modulo some delay where some cron job needs to fetch the
information. So if everything will went fine tomorrow evening the
package should be updated. Feel free to check this and ping me if
this is not the case.

I'm slowly working down some past vacation backlog. As I said above
please ping me in case you might need further help.
Many thanks for your interest in Debian Med and the preparation of the
package
Andreas.
