Well, seems to be worth discussing.  I'll do since I also want to
approach them about unit tests (which vanished in the new version).

:-)
Seems we should not install this at all any more ...

No, I did not.  I just realised that this also has moved.  To bad if
projects are moving and our watch files are pointing to the wrong
location.  Since it might perfectly be the cause of the problem I could
try to do this today evening / night if nobody will beat me.

This also scores one more point for the unit test which simply should
have made the build fail ...

I think so.  I'm not done with the package anyway since it creates
a lintian error about google-spying in the docs.  Letting you have
a look in parallel has proven to be valuable. ;-)

Kind regards and thanks for testing

        Andreas.
