Unfortunately I don't know Vala too ):

I never did collab-maint and I haven't got Alioth account. I'm very
new to all of this stuff, but it sounds great (:

I guess apt-utils was relic of Troorls package on which my package was
based on. My mentor haven't look on my package yet because of waf is
going to be removed from Debian and it's a bit problematic, cause Pino
depends on it (theoretically when it provides waf in upstream there
shouldn't be any problem, but it's only theoretically). I already
wrote an e-mail to Troorl and if my understanding is good, there
shouldn't be any problem with packaging Pino as long as upstream is
going to provide waf (:

I certainly will! (:
