I have conducted more tests, and hope that I've now a functionnal
package.

I've then uploaded it to experimental (and committed the sources to an
'experimental' branch in the SVN)

You should then be able to test very soon the package from experimental.

Btw, the package now depends on python-feedparser instead of shipping
its own copy, so hopefully some CVEs won't apply any more.

FYI, I've proposed the patches as a pull request to upstream author.
