I'm still intrested in it, as it is a dependency of udav. However I'm
sorry, I did not had that time in last months for learning first how
to work around with packaging in the debian-science Team (git repos),
and I did not arrived yet to the point to have a package ready, thus.

It would be on the other side great to have updated mathgl and udav
packages before squeeze freeze. But at the moment I cannot say  if I
can be able to prepare uploads for these two packages, since I'm
already 'busy' with my main interest, the Debian Perl Group
packagings.

Stefano, or some others, if you would like to update the mathgl
package to the current upstream version, help would be welcome!
