Hmm, that's sad.
I'd maintain this is a case of breakage in X.
Further problem of the package: There is no upstream URL in
debian/copyright.
That's because there is no upstream. All changes since 0.81 have been
made by me (and I've done some significant changes.) Upstream stopped
maintaining it about 7 years ago.
Would be nice if you would state this anywhere just to avoid that people
are looking for the source ..
Please tell me if you have time constraints and I should prepare a
NMU.
If you have a patch for the Imakefile problem, please send it directly
to me and I will be happy to apply it and make a new release. I am
not an imake expert and I don't know how to solve this problem.
I'm really no Imake expert nor do I understand the sense of Imake while
we have the nice automake/autoconf tools. Perhaps you should tag the
bug "Help" and make clear the problem. Perhaps someone would step in
and fixes the Imake problem or just would port it to automake - which
I would prefer.
But having it laying around and doing nothing to RC bugs is not good.
Kind regards
Andreas.
