Ahh, apologies -- I was thinking of a different package.

But in any case, the experimental g-wrap hasn't actually built
everywhere, so someone still has to handle that first:

  https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=g-wrap&suite=experimental

Afterward, and once we're sure the new g-wrap actually works correctly
(or at least reasonably) with guile-2.0, we'll have to deal with the
rdepends, i.e. guile-cairo and guile-gnome-platform.  Both will have to
be updated for 2.0, tested, and then migrate in tandem with the new
g-wrap.

Hence my feeling that we need active maintainers for whichever of these
are to remain in Debian.  I might considering helping with that
eventually, but probably not in the short term.
