I don't really want to take over packaging. I just think that we should
at least clean it up a bit (incorporating NMUs and pointing to the right
repo) for Stretch, the current state looks messy.

I don't think we can get a new version into Stretch (there are a few
rdeps of the libraries), but I'm open to get a new version into
experimental ASAP (and then into sid as soon as Stretch is out). I can
assist with testing and uploading if necessary.

Is uploading -3 with beforementioned small changes okay for you? Can you
access the git repo?
