Great that you are working on this and offer a patch. Thanks!

Beware, though, that a complex patch combining multiple unrelated 
changes has a higher risk of containing flaws and (mainly) therefore is 
less likely to be adopted by the maintainer(s) of the package.

Personally I only feel comfortable working with packages that use CDBS, 
so won't be dealing with this one anyway.  Just sharing a general 
concern here.


Kind regards, and keep the spirit high,

 - Jonas
