I was aware of my RC bugs, yes, and I was working on fixing them.

I did not look into my bugmail during these last days, sorry about that.
Thanks for taking time to work on debugging and fixing the packages.

For the next time, please feel free to use the package git so we could
add another layer to avoid work duplication.

Sorry for not checking upstream code this time. I have the impression
that you think that I deliberately miss/remove the credit from patches,
that is not the case Gianfranco. I have no reason to do this which goes
against what rules open source. I wrote my patches (both were trivial)
without using upstream changes or notice the existence of your patch.

changing it is considered bad).

Fully agree here, I will remove my custom patches and use the upstream
commit.

Thanks for the assumption and the offer, I have rights now to upload
changes to kido.
