Hi Arnaud,

Sorry to read this. Note that Debian actually allows that
kind of clauses, if they are accompanied by guarantees
that we can patch at build time:

http://www.debian.org/social_contract.en.html#guidelines

However, I am not sure that it is worth the effort trying to convince the
maintainer to go that way, expecially that in Debian the d4x package is
maintained by the QA team, whose task is herculean.

Dear QA team, shall we proceed with the removal of the package?

Cheers,
