Ah OK, this clears the things up.
I don't have strong feelings in any case, I don't expect someone to be
using this version of the package nowadays.
On the other hand, I don't also see the clear benefits from removing it.
I'm planning to adopt the package anyway, and I have prepared a
package with the latest upstream.
The actual upload (in experimental anyway) will take some time, since
kismet is a huge package that has to be thoroughly tested before
sponsored.
