I would be available as co-maintainer. I intend to bring forward
Minetest, and I began this work by packaing some important mods. I think
it would be a good thing if we could get together for all of this as a
team.

I do not see what you mean by "without success" - you have to enable the
mesecons_textures mod inside Minetest, and it works. That's the intended
behaviour by upstream. If we want to change that behaviour in Debian,
just remove the trailing ? from my patch.
