Hello,

 This is a serious bug filed against your package because it
 build-depends on xlibs-dev, which as announced in [1] a while ago, is
 no longer available in sid. This makes your package fail to build from
 source.

I've attached the patch for xtoolwait to this message. I can't upload it myself, because I never actually completed the Debian new-maintainer process. Thorsten Sauter sponsored the original upload (before that, the package was orphaned).

That said, xtoolwait hardle ever changes, so as long as long as somebody else (e.g. Thorsten?) wants to build and upload the packages, I don't mind continuing to maintain it on a sponsorship basis.

Cheers!

 Description: Allows to start X applications serially
  Xtoolwait notably decreases the startup time of your X sessions,
  provided that you start a number of X clients automatically during the
  X session startup.  Xtoolwait starts one X client in the background,
  waits until it has mapped a window and then exits.
