Whoops, this had kind of slipped down my todo list.
I've fixed a couple of FTBFS issues, but not really addressed the
long-standing bugs in the BTS.
I'll upload preliminary packages to
http://nessie.mcc.ac.uk/~ianb/debian/
in the next few days.
As for whether we still need the package, I'm not sure.
The previous maintainer suspected it's not really used any more, and
said it is long-dead upstream. I was planning to put a note in
README.Debian asking for feedback from people still using it.
I don't mind keeping an eye on it for the foreseeable future (although
I'll have to find a sponsor), but if you feel it is not worth keeping,
by all means remove it from debian.
Ian.
