Not really.

I've just uploaded "ctapi-dev" to Debian -- a copy of the package is
available at http://people.debian.org/~sjr/ -- which contains a very
conservative definition of the interface, and declares a Replaces: on
all versions of towitoko-dev and libctapimkt0-dev known to contain the
file.

The next towitoko upload will remove these files and use the common
definition (incidentally, I also found a bug in the towitoko package
this way, as the package uses "char" as the return type, which is
unsigned on PowerPC).

I expect this package to be maintenance-free, given that the standard
hasn't even been updated in the last 15 years.
