That person closed my bug report (LP #477755) where I was suggesting the altlinux solution that was finally accepted upstream, in order to open this bug. Then he told me that comments in this bug report were unwelcome (comment #16), so I became unable to provide feedback to the bug I reported.
Then he started asking people money about his packaging job in libnatspec (developed by Vitaly Lipatov) and being rude when people weren't willing to pay.
Fortunately at a point he got "insulted" because people continued to comment on this bug report, and left.

What I mean is that I don't want to contact that package maintainer, and if possible, I wouldn't want to use his package either, more so when the upstream solution doesn't use it.
I've been coding open source programs for almost 20 years now, and been packaging some of them in the last few years that I've switched to Linux. I'd prefer to redo any needed coding or packaging work myself before having to cooperate with such a person.

For now I'll just wait for Debian to package the newer version of unzip, and then contact upstream if any problems persist.
