As see with argouml developers, 0.24 is not compilable for now and
there's no maintenance branch for it, only a unstable development branch.
Can you envisage to drop argouml out of Debian ?
The goal is to remove an outdated and obsolete package. Perhaps in few
years we will have an argouml release that would be packagable.
