Whatever this means - I have committed the diff now.  Thanks for trying
anyway.  May be it is time to move the package to Git. :-) I did not
cared for texmaker for a while and thus I explicitly kept the other
uploaders of Debian Science in CC - just let me know about your plans.
If I do not hear from you in a couple of days I'll do the Git migration
to simplify things for other developers who want to contribute code.

I'm perfectly fine with low threshold NMUs (or also "Team upload"s).

Thanks for the pointer.  As I said I lost a bit track with texmaker
since I do not use it myself.  I would volunteer to do the SVN -> Git
migration and try to prepare the next version if nobody else is doing
this.

Kind regards

       Andreas.
