I prefer Hauke. Strange. Middle name. I know. Still. :)

Ah, crap. Sorry. Do you clean up the mess? I can push whenever you want
to that (right) repository.

That's usually the best, yes. I've changed a thousand things already.
Some of them didn't seem worth the effort afterwards, some I don't think
we want to keep. But actually, I'm now familiar with how the package
works, at least. I hope you're fine that I've pushed forward towards an
dh7 style debian/rules. I like it *way* better now as it's better to
read.

Well, more importantly I find an upload to stable as the upgrade still
doesn't work (#606262) which sucks. I admit, I didn't try yet. I don't
have a test system yet. I'm still trying to clean up what's wrong in the
package imo (i.e. conffiles being worked on with sed during configure
even if the admin may have changed them -- that already fu**ed up
something for me).

IOW, we really need a course of action, some guidelines as to what we're
going to do with the package etc. I'm fine if you want to branch out
from the import-5.0.3 commit to set the new maintainer and upload. But
we really need to fix stuff[TM].
