Still, I'll refuse to do this kind of sponsoring in the future: - The amount of work this sponsoring took me is probably way more than would have been necessary; I had to explicitly request all this further information, no ready-made packages were provided for download. - The package needs some love anyhow, even lintian shows a number of warnings. - No idea why the debdiff had a *dos* encoding.
