Its not that I dislike symbols files - I dislike the manual work I have
with these files.  So if somebody volunteers to update symbols files I'd
be really grateful.

I just wanted to get a new status update.  Feel free to ping me if you
succeeded in updating the symbols file and want me to finalise the packaging
(if there is any work left).
