Hello Jordi
I think now mess is ready to be uploaded, if you would like to do it. I
tried to incorporate your mame fixes ( standard revision bump and so on
) in the packaging code.

Mame 0.146 has just been released, I am compiling it right now.

As a side note I have read[1] upstream is thinking of posting links to
distro packages from their download page for Unix users ( à la VLC ),
which is a nice recognition of our work.
