Bug#1008415: libnih: FTBFS: dh_auto_test: error: make -j8 check VERBOSE=1 returned exit code 2
Hi Mike and Axel,
libnih has been removed as dependency for lomiri-donwload-manager for a
good while upstream [0] but has not had a release with this in it yet.
So I make a new released lomiri-download-manager 0.1.1 with libnih
removed as dep, and uploaded this to unstable. So nih can be removed IMO.

Best regards,
Marius Gripsgard
