No, the maintaining of it is not hard. Compiles cleanly and no major hacks are
required to the source.  I just didn't necessarily agree with the author on all
things...;)  That and it's hard for me to test / debug gnome stuff because I
refuse to use it. (Let's not go there, please =)

Raster and I had philosophical differences, which made the maintainer/author
relationship hard.  Give it a shot, if you can't do it someone else will step
in.

I'm very happy that you took the package, because I'm heavyly dependend
from it.  In my humble opinion maintaining is not so hard, because
the program compiled well in all version I compiled myself (sometimes
there where reasons despite the Debian packaging...).

Thanks for maintaining this package

Andreas.

I get the feeling nobody wants these packages.  Did I just make a
boneheaded move by accepting the Imlib packages? :)

The right answer is "hell no" (=

The detailed answer is I used to maintain it and hamm still contains the
packages I uploaded.

No.  Shaleh was the maintainer before me.
