As you can see from the changelog and WNPP bug, I started working on this
package when I found that there was a new upstream release after a long
dormant period. I had hoped that it would address some of the long-standing
bugs, but it turned out to have at least as many problems as the previous
version. During the time that I was working on it, I received several
wishlist bugs indicating that there is quite a bit of interest in this
package, but it will probably be a lot of work to get it built on all Debian
architectures.
