Hi Michael,

problem with showq is that the project is upstream dead :(
I can't fix issue like this by myself unless somebody with better skills
than me will provide a patch.
Unfortunately I don't know other alternative on linux providing similar
functionality  ...
If you know some free alternative let me know I will consider to package it.

I am strongly thinking to stop maintaining package and drop it from debian
because there is no upstream development.

best regards

mira
