Looking at the package page[1], never. There was a version in squeeze and there is a version in sid, but now that wheezy has been released, there is (I think) no chance of packages being added to it. This is the nature of "stable". A set of packages is formed and those are maintained for the life of the release; security patches are released but typically no new functionality is added. If you need the package in wheezy, you will probably need to build it yourself. The other (patient) way is to wait for it to enter testing, and then request that the developer does the work[2] needed to backport the changes to wheezy.
