Thanks a ton for working on this, Georg and Julien! Thanks to you,
there's still hope to have a working mat2 nautilus extension in Buster.

I skimmed through the patch and it looks good to me. I also did some
rough testing and at least with my test files it worked as expected.

I merged jvoisin's changes into the d/0.7.0-2 branch.

So from my side, 0.7.0-2 is ready to be uploaded.

Cheers
 jonas
