the problem was that the upstream developer of fsviewer (and wterm)

I see.
There are two different options now:
1. Include the libwmaker0-dev package in the upstream of fsviewer. Then
the package libwmaker0-dev is provided by fsviewer source package.
2. Remove the libwmaker0-dev functions of fsviewer (rewrite fsviewer),
therefore the package fsviewer won't need libwmaker0-dev
In both cases, probably you will be the new upstream. I didn't have more
Well, before being new upstream, I have to manage to compile it. Where
do I get an up-to-date libwmaker0-dev? It does not seem to be in Debian
as a package of its own...
If I can compile it, maybe I am able to rewrite the code that depends on
it...

I know. I am really grateful that you maintain the Debian wmaker
package! Really!
