I am planning to upload it tonight, but it will be in NEW queue for a while.

The state of the package itself (especially debian/rules) is really terrible. It
needs to be completely rewritten. I will upload it because it has some
reverse-depends.

If it will not be cleaned, it is better to remove such packages from
Debian, sorry.
