Hey Sandro,

I’m overwhelmed by academic job applications. I assume Stretch’s release date 
is coming soon enough that this should fix ASAP so I think It would be better 
if you could have a look. If I have some time later this week, I might give 
also a look at it but nothing is sure. 

BTW, AFAIR the package is outdated with respect to the source in g.d.o that 
might fix already a random FTBFS. You might start from that.

Thanks,

JC
