This package needs someone who really is interested in maintaining it properly.

These are the issues I encountered while trying to fix this bug:

1. configure can't be recreated by autoconf because configure.in still uses gtk-1 macros
2. The patching is done during building the package, AFTER configure, that causes... interesting results.
3. The build warnings generated during building are scary. out-of-bound arrays, stack_chk fails, implicit declarations, pointer cast size differ.... you name it.
4. Upstream is dead and gone.

If this package isn't going to be fixed I suggest removing from (at least) precise and reevaluate later on.
