The previous one hasn't been sponsored yet, so you're merely updating the
request rather than asking for a new upload.  Appending to the RFS bug is
preferred.  One sponsored upload -- one RFS.

I see you're going to have trouble finding someone who can meaningfully
review the package: it can't be tested without relevant hardware.  I for one
have a non-gaming Logitech keyboard, this daemon doesn't speak to it (not
surprising -- no LEDs other than Num/Caps/Scroll).

The package fails to build on architectures other than amd64 and i386, as
its code to detect ISA extensions uses x86-only features despite obvious
attempts of the build system to be portable.  It'd be nice to fix this as
fancy-schmancy keyboards are in no way x86-specific: you can attach one both
to an $89 Pinebook (arm64) or to a $6.5k Talos 2 (ppc64el).
