But the maintainer upload in 2008 was from mhatta, while now
there is a different maintainer
TSUCHIYA Masatoshi <tsuchiya@namazu.org>
so I am a bit surprised when this happened, and what will going to
happen.
Anyway, for now I decided to put the package into debian-tex's git
repo area.
If the release managers agree I will upload the NMU, but it does
not make sense to upload a big NMU with lots of changes and then
it is not going into wheezy.
Best wishes

SMEARISARY (n.)
The correct name for a junior apprentice greengrocer whose main duty
is to arrange the fruit so that the bad side is underneath. From the
name of a character not in Dickens.
