The main problem is - as I see it - that some authors of language (and theme)
files are not active any more and one can't contact them to let them license their
work under GPL. Honestly I don't know how to solve this problem. If you have any
ideas I would be more than happy.

I already put a first package to mentors:
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/r/rawtherapee
And the source code is at
http://github.com/rinni/RawTherapee-debian
