The multisync maintainer seems to be absent and upstream development has
stopped, and now concentrates on opensync.  Thus, I am not sure an
upload to experimental is warranted.

Just rebuilding against the experimental libraries should work, then, I
guess.

Looking at the bug list, I would assume multisync is broken in unstable
as well, with or without experimental libraries.

I plan to update the multisync package to the last version in CVS (to
which no more commit apparently are made), and get it built for
unstable, before moving on to opensync.  If the package will need
rebuilds for new versions of evolution libraries in unstable, those will
be done.

This is all assuming that the maintainer will not pop up again.
