The neon project is maintaining an up to date partition manager:
 https://packaging.neon.kde.org/neon-packaging/partitionmanager.git/

It's usually a good idea to try to sync our packaging efforts with the ones in 
neon.

Also, please, keep the maintenance of the package under the kde 
extras umbrella, so the rest of the team can work on it from time to time.

And, it would be better if the package maintenance is moved to git.

If you need help with any of this, please join to #debian-qt-kde @ 
irc.debian.org or ask in the pkg-kde-talk mailing list (
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/pkg-kde-talk )

At least I was planning to work on partition manager after stretch is 
released, so I would prefer if it's not orphaned, but I don't mind if somebody 
else takes care of it.

Happy hacking,
