So it looks like it's just a workaround which may not exist forever. I
think we should change the VCS URLs (yet again). If we're going to
change the maintainer address anyway, I don't think it will be a huge

I've had a go at writing a script in python which does some of this.
I've put it here:
https://salsa.debian.org/jcowgill/multimedia-cli
I'll see if I can add the pending bugs webhook to it.
