The problem is, why we are shipping a dead package?
Dead ?
https://bitbucket.org/troorl/pino3/
not sure it is dead
It is dead as in "build errors reported 1 year ago have not been fixed
yet even if the developer commits a few changes every few months and
patches are available in the bug tracker".
See https://bitbucket.org/troorl/pino3/issue/17/build-error#comment-472096
for example or

The developper has been quite active when he started the project in
september 2010, again at christmas last year, and spent a few hours on
it every few months since...
I would not expect a working release before a few years if it ever happens...
There was a message about one year ago from a user: "just compiled
pino.3.....I am not a fan. its barely functional. missing my old light
twitter client pino .2.11... ", and the author replied "What can I say?
It is on the early stage of developing."

So I don't except a serious change in the code, maybe it would be better
to provide pino2 and patch against newer libs. The newest Ubuntu
provides it in the 2nd release.
