explained why blimps is packaged the way it is: it is dead upstream and its usefulness is questionable apart of the feautures already required by packages that depend on it (such as sift)

 blimps for Debian
 -----------------
 
-Out of the many binaries from the upstream blimps package only fastaseqs is
-included in blimps-utils.  The reason for this is that only that utility is
-needed by the sift package.  Sift depends on blimps.
+Blimps is no longer maintained upstream.  Out of the many binaries from the
+upstream blimps package only fastaseqs is included in blimps-utils.  The
+reason for this is that only that utility is needed by packages that
+depend on blimps and no new packages are expected to depend on blimps.
+If you need something and you can not find it in this package, please
+contact the package maintaner(s).

 blimps for Debian
 -----------------
+blimps is no longer maintained upstream, see http://blocks.fhcrc.org/blocks/uploads/blimps/.
+Therefore fixes to source can not be communicated to upstream.  Since no new
+software is expected to require blimps, packaging focuses only on features
+required by packages that already depend on blimps (such as sift).  If you
+need something and you can not find it in this package, please contact the
+package maintaner(s).
