The manpage is there since the 0.5 version. So ok, I will upload it
soon. However, I will stick it to sid/unstable as I'm not sure the
internal format of the repo will not changed again. I do not think
having such young software in sarge would be a good think.

My usual sponsor is a little bit busy actually, so yes, I would be happy
if you would like to sponsor this pacakge.

I just ask upstream to be sure that they are libs and not scripts. It
will be soon corrected.
