Hi again Markus,

Excellent work updating this package.
I consider it ready to be uploaded to experimental.

I'd like to check the compability of this release in experimental
although I understand there are several packages broken in sid
right now.

However, we can't upload it as is due to this non-free source file.

Do you think we can exclude this file from the source code?
Or maybe we can find a free reimplementation of it?
Can you take it to upstream?

Thanks for taking the time to update it.

Cheers,
