Comment 4 for bug 375235

I was able to build this package not too long ago, however obviously it does not at the moment, so I'm going to close this bug. It is probably not difficult to merge the changes, but that would only divert the package from Debian again. My main reasons for a sync would be to keep up with Debian changes without hassle in MoM or other merges, and for a little bit of packaging practice. I think that it may still be a transient problem, in which case I may reopen it later. Thanks nhandler for your assistance on this!
