Hi, Sorry about bad filled report, it was my first attempt to use reportbug (after a failure of M-x debian-bug-intend-to-package). In fact I'm the main developer of the tool (pgloader), made the packaging and already am in touch with a debian developper for sponsorship!

Fair enough, will shorten the long description entry from debian/control. Thanks for reviewing this ITP, -- dim I decry the current tendency to seek patents on algorithms. There are better ways to earn a living than to prevent other people from making use of one's contributions to computer science. -- D. E. Knuth
