Although I'm new to Debian maintenance (my first and only work is the
packaging of pragha (https://mentors.debian.net/package/pragha)), I
would like to take ownership of this package.

I cloned the package repository and I understood how syncing with
upstream was designed (very clever, imo).  So, I synced it and I began
working on the removal of the patches that are no longer required, or
that do not apply cleanly.

Once that is solved, I'll have a package and lots of bugs on Alioth to
mark as fixed.  Arguably, this will be the hardest part, since there
are a lot of open bugs and since there has been a lot of improvements
upstream.

Is it fine if I keep doing this?
