If it is properly set up using distuils (e.g., it installs a .desktop
file using it), there should be no problem packaging it. But due to a
lack of time I’m reluctant to add more packages that I don’t use myself.
Is someone else on the pkg-fso list interested in packaging this? Or at
least, is there a Debian user that will share the maintenance
responsibility, e.g. answering bug reports and keep track of upstream
development?

Also, Onen, is the program suited to be run on regular computers as
well? Does it depend on the FSO stack, or is it independent from it?
Maybe it could be uploaded to Debian directly.

Greetings,
Joachim
