I can't really promise much, but I've subscribed to the package on
tracker.debian.org now and set up a watch on the repository in Salsa. If
new bug reports or other issues show up, I will try to take a look and
maybe come up with a fix or analysis/thoughts.

I see that you've removed the maintainer scripts for downloading the
data in Git - thanks for that! Certainly simplifies the package and its
maintenance a bit, too.


Kind regards,
Manfred
