Hi,

I updated this (too) little package, but it seems eligible for
"useless+unmaintained":
 * no Debian (r-)deps
 * no npmjs deps !!!
 * no upstream update for at least 2 years
 * not a real node package:
   * no "main" value in package.json
   * no index.js, just a very little bin/preamble
  => I had to disable Testsuite and dh_auto_test

Any advice before ROM-RM ?
