Ummm....  It took me approximately 5 minutes to download the source, 
make the changes in debian-rules, and compile a new package.  I can 
count on one hand the number of Debian package I have created, so, it 
can't take any longer for an experienced developer to do the same thing  
than it did for me.

I also think that waiting 3 1/2 months for a 5 minute fix before 
complaining is being patient.
