It's quite irrelevant if the app is a Gnome, Gt or > whatever app. It is actually quite relevant because it is up to the upstream developer which configurations they support and which not.

It's not broken beyond usability. It works for me perfectly fine. There is no guarantee you though that it will work in your particular configuration. And, as you can read from the license, Debian comes with absolutely no warranty whatsoever, so I am not sure what you are expecting. > Sure, the newer version right now is only available in testing and sid > (tested both, same > result).

FWIW, I am merely packaging the software for Debian. I am not the upstream developer. If you have problems with the software itself which is not related to packaging, you should direct your bug reports upstream. Unfortunately though, upstream actually does not officially support Linux, so they don't really care if it breaks. Thus, if you are really so annoyed by the software not working on your particular system, I am happy to request a removal of the package from the Debian archive mirrors so that I don't have to bother with such entitled bug reports anymore.
