Ack.

The last ITP for this package (#440527) was also closed after some
time because it's somewhere between untrivial and impossible ...

After a quick glance at the old bug report it would need something
like libpari-source ...

AFAICS there was no reply from the libpari maintainer, and upstream
in https://rt.cpan.org/Ticket/Display.html?id=30552 also didn't
follow up on Gunnar's request.

INSTALL mentions some ways about using a pre-built libpari but this
doesn't sound very encouraging ... (And the hint with LIBPARI= also
doesn't seem to work for me.)

Cheers,
gregor
